We are inviting all families with children 3, 5, or 7 years old to join us for Shichi-Go-San (7,5,3). Join us in celebrating the growth and well-being of your children in this traditional holiday!
This beautiful ceremony, open to 3 and 7 year-old girls and 5 year-old boys, is an opportunity to get photos of your child dressed in traditional kimono against Shofuso’s backdrop. Included in the ticket price will be kimono dressing in one of our standard kimono and photos throughout the house by a professional photographer, as well as traditional candy.

Rental Option and Price List
Parents will select one of the options shown above based on the additional rental options they would like to include in their package. KiraKira Artistry will be providing professional photography for all sessions, but can also provide premium kimono rentals.
All parents will need to contact KiraKira artistry directly to discuss rental session details. Please reach her at kirakiraartistry@gmail.com before November 1st.
PLEASE READ:
- Kimono dressing does take some time (about 15-20 minutes), with hair and make up taking much longer so please be aware that children may become restless. Undressing the kimono takes about 5 minutes as well.
- Please arrive 15 minutes before your start time.
- If you are bringing your own kimono, please be sure that you have ALL pieces of the kimono with you
- Only purchase tickets for children dressing in kimono and getting their photos taken
- Anyone who does not select a special kimono rental will be dressed in our standard Kimono owned by Shofuso.
- Note that Shichi-Go-San is for 3 and 7 year old girls and 5 year old boys. We cannot accommodate any children over 7 years old.
- Any family willing to allow the JASGP to use their photos for future promotional purposes will receive a free video package created by KiraKira Artistry
If you have any questions, please email info@japanphilly.org. Tickets will be non-refundable after October 26th.
