‘Spring and Renewal’ Salon on April 17th, 2026

Our inaugural salon ‘Spring and Renewal’ took place on April 17th, 2026 in collaboration with St. Andre in their remarkable townhouse on the Upper West Side of New York City.

The evening featured performances by world-class musicians Anthony McGill, Principal Clarinet of the New York Philharmonic, Risa Hokamura, international prizewinning violinist, and pianist and Sora's founder Rieko Tsuchida, as well as a special ikebana performance by Komi Hatazuki together with the music.

Carefully curated guests from the business, arts, and philanthropy worlds came together to enjoy this evening of intimate connection, music, and Japanese culture thanks to our partners Dassai Blue and Takeda Zen.

With special thanks to Mikimoto and Naeem Khan.
