Connect Through Japanese Culture, Language, and Community

Japan Cultural Exchange of New York (JCXNY) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization offering online clubs, language practice, and cultural activities for students, families, and community members interested in Japan and cross-cultural exchange. Online programs are available through Zoom.

Our Mission

JCXNY’s mission is to promote cultural understanding, friendship, and education through Japanese language and cultural exchange programs.
