Here in the Grand Rapids, MI area, we have a Japanese language and kimono/yukata enthusiast club that meets at one of the larger local bookstores. (I speak/read/write some Japanese, but I'm not part of the club due to lack of time.) Both activities seem to be quite well-accepted among actual Japanese people, with opinions I've heard ranging from "whatever, it's fine" to the more common side of "wow, that's really cool that someone outside of Japan is that excited for our thing", both about gaijin learning Japanese (even poorly - the effort is usually commended) and wearing kimono.
