Venice Hongwanji Buddhist Temple will be holding our annual Obon Festival July 16-17, 2022. While we are planning for a full, in-person Festival this year, due to continued COVID-19 concerns, our Festival may once again be held virtually.

Our Obon Committee decided that we will continue to accept all levels of donations, and any amount is greatly appreciated. Sponsors who contribute $100 or more will be acknowledged in materials published for our Festival events and will be highlighted on our Obon Festival page of the Temple website.

We thank you for your generosity and look forward to a time soon when we can once again celebrate together in person.

Venice Hongwanji Buddhist Temple is one of approximately 60 Jodo Shinshu temples and churches that are a part of the Buddhist Churches of America. Located in the Culver City area of Los Angeles, we have been promoting the Buddha Dharma for over 60 years.

Note: When entering payment information, the default settings will indicate you will cover the processing fees and offer a 15% tip to GiveButter. You may change these options by unchecking "Yes, cover the fees" and changing the tip amount to 0%.
