In partnership with Black Professionals in International Affairs’ Asia Working Group (BPIA), (NABEA) brought members together for Anime Night Out, a fun evening of networking, community, and anime.

This was a great opportunity to meet fellow professionals in a relaxed, casual setting.

Members met at AMC Hoffman Center at 4:00 PM to watch Spirited Away for the Studio Ghibli Fest 2026. After the movie, members headed to Ichiban Izakaya to enjoy Japanese food and mingled.
