Over 30 participants ages 5-70 enjoyed the film, On a Paper Crane, Tomoko's adventure. Leah, YAC Asian Connections facilitator, Mrs. Mari Leslie, Vice-President of the Oklahoma City Japan America Society, and Mrs. Clay, Asian Connections Project sponsor, welcomed participants and introduced the main organizer of the event, Dr. Gigi Hu. Dr. Hu introduced the fim and invited participants to make paper cranes and eat the wonderful vegetable sushi donated by Super Cao Nguyen, mochi, and other sweet delicacies donated by friends of the Asian Connections Project. 
After the film, participants made over 100 cranes. Everyone had a good time learning about the story of Sadako and the legend of making 1,000 cranes for a wish to come true. Our wish is for a world at peace one day.
