2023 JCAM Gala Dinner
Date
Saturday September 23rd, 2023
Cocktails 6:00, Dinner 6:30
Location
Canad Inns Polo Park
1405 St Matthews Ave
The 2023 JCAM GALA dinner feels very special now that we have "weathered the storm" over the past 3 years and JCAM has reemerged under a rainbow of success. "Keizoku wa chikara nari" is a famous Japanese proverb which literally translates into "Persistence Pays off." This proverb sums up all the efforts of our members, volunteers, employees, and our board! Let's continue to strive to keep our centre a home to be proud of and shared by all.
Our guest of honour for the 2023 JCAM Gala Dinner is Ms. Isha Khan, CEO of the Canadian Museum of Human Rights. Ms. Khan is a lawyer, educator, and community leader dedicated to building a culture of human rights in Canada.
Our 2023 JCAM Community Awards will also be presented. The Gala Dinner provides the opportunity for us to celebrate the contributions of those who keep our community thriving.
We are so excited to present two Community Service Awards. They will be presented to Mrs. Kathy Grabowski and Mr. Harvey Kaita.
This year will be the inaugural year for our new award, the "Bill Norrie - Community Supporter Award" being presented to former mayor, Mr. Brian Bowman!
This year, JCAM Gala Dinner guests will have a chance to meet members from across Canada as the National Association of Japanese Canadians (NAJC) hosts its annual meeting in our city. Over 100 delegates are invited to our centre to work for the betterment of all the cultural associations across Canada. The NAJC meeting agenda is a discussion to build capacity of membership as well as succession planning.
The Gala Dinner is the one annual event when the majority of us get to sit back and enjoy an evening with family and friends. It provides a wonderful opportunity to catch up with one another. Join us for an evening of laughter, lively conversation, and even a maskless hug or two!

2023年度のＪＣＡＭギャラディナーは、3年のコロナ禍を乗り越え、とても特別なものに感じられます。
こうして乗り越えられたのも、「継続は力なり」という言葉に示されるように、ＪＣＡＭのメンバー、ボランティア、従業員、そして、理事会の努力の賜物だと思います。
ＪＣＡＭを皆様の誇り、そして、共有できる空間、第二の家として、引き続き、盛り立ててまいりましょう。
今年のゲストスピーカーはカーン・イシャさんです。彼女はカナダ国立人権博物館のＣＥＯであり、弁護士、教育者、人権運動に邁進するコニュニティーリーダーでもあります。
また、ＪＣＡＭコニュニティー賞も、発表されます。このギャラディナーは地域の貢献者を表彰する素晴らしい機会でもあります。
さらに、今回はＮＡＪＣの恒例のミーティングがウィニペグで行われるため、このディナーの場で、カナダ全域のメンバーと交流できる貴重なイベントです。私たちの文化センターの発展に努めるため、100人以上の代表者がウィニペグへ招かれています。
一年に一回のギャラディナーで、皆さまが、ご家族、ご友人と楽しい時を過ごして頂ける、素敵な一夜となるでしょう。
是非、奮ってご参加いただき、笑いと歓談に包まれた、マスクなしのハグを楽しんでいただけたらと思います。
