We will hold our 2021 Annual General Meeting (AGM) once again ONLINE for the Ottawa Japanese Community Association (OJCA) and the Ottawa Japanese Cultural Centre (OJCC).

The date we have chosen is Sunday, October 3rd, starting at 1:00 pm – 4:00pm. These will not be in-person meetings, but will instead be conducted using the ZOOM platform.

We hope that many of you will participate. So we have an attractive plan that all non-Board participants will be entered into a draw to win a prize!
