Welcome to the Arkansas Cherry Blossom Festival Silent Auction! 🌸

Join us for the Arkansas Cherry Blossom Festival on Saturday, April 12, 2025, in Hot Springs, Arkansas, as we celebrate Japanese culture, heritage, and international friendship. This vibrant festival, inspired by the 30+ year sister city relationship between Hot Springs and Hanamaki, Japan, features traditional performances, cultural exhibits, hands-on activities, and authentic culinary experiences.

📅 Festival Hours: 10:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 12th

Your participation in this silent auction directly supports the Hot Springs National Park Sister City Foundation and its mission to promote cultural exchange, education, and meaningful community connections. Proceeds help fund student exchange programs, cultural events, and initiatives that strengthen the bond between our sister cities.

Silent auction items will be on display at the festival if you’d like to take a closer look before placing your bids. The auction will remain open through the weekend, ending at 10:00 p.m. on Sunday, April 13th. Sorry, no shipping, all items must be picked up at the Sister City office prior to April 30.
