Are you interested in learning more about the Asian languages taught at the University of Michigan? The Department of Asian Languages and Cultures invites you to the Asian Languages Fair, featuring guests from the Chinese Language Program, Japanese Language Program, Korean Language Program, South Asian Language Program, and Southeast Asian Language Program. There will be live cultural performances and opportunities to win raffle prizes.

This year, the language programs will also be offering short mini-lessons during the fair. This is a great opportunity to try out a new language!
