Celebrate Tanabata!  Tanabata, also known as the Star Festival, means "evening of the seventh", typically celebrated on July 7th. This Japanese holiday originates from a Chinese legend of two "star-crossed lovers" kept separated by distance. Represented by the stars Altair and Vega, they are allowed to meet once a year, on the seventh day of the seventh month.
