Its this wonderful time of the year for us. In celebration of our Newah holiday season, Nepal Sambat (Newah New Year) and Mha Puja Celebrations, worship-to-the-self, we are once again hosting a community gathering. The whole purpose of this event is to inform the local Nepali and non Nepali communities about Nepali art, culture and our traditional practices to preserve our cultural heritage, networking opportunities and strengthening our neighborhood with the sense of belonging. This event will also act as a wellness program as "Mha Puja" as a whole is about a reminder to self-love and gratitude and will highlight food, culture and entertainment. Those who are interested to attend, please register here, as we have limited seats.

We love Nepali kagaz!

Banks across Japan began stocking their ATMs on Wednesday July 3rd, 2024 with shiny new yen notes make from Lokta paper also known as Nepali kagaj.
Before entering the wallets of Japanese consumers, the yen notes had a long, complex journey involving months of labor and transport by land and air across thousands of kilometers. This process has offered a potential new source of income to communities in Nepal.

“I really think that Nepal contributed to Japan’s economy, as cash is fundamental to the Japanese economy,” said Tadashi Matsubara, president of Kanpou, the company that produces paper for the Japanese government. “Without Nepal, Japan would not function.”
