Join Atlantic Center for the Arts in celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the Sister-State Relationship between Florida and Wakayama, Japan with an exhibition that showcases work by Florida and Japanese artists.
The opening reception, Thursday, June 26, 4-7pm, will feature Shiho Yamashita performing on the Koto, Japanese Harp. The reception and exhibition are free and open to the public at ACA’s main campus in the Mark and Margery Pabst Visitor Center and Gallery.
The State of Florida and Wakayama Prefecture signed an agreement for a Sister-State relationship on October 4, 1995, with the commitment to strengthen friendship and understanding focusing on trade, the economy and social and cultural development.
Through many cultural exchanges between Wakayama and the State of Florida, renowned artists from Wakayama have visited Florida to teach and demonstrate their craft. In turn, Florida artists have visited Wakyama to share their artistry in the visual and performing arts. Atlantic Center for the Arts is a proud partner of this unique and valuable relationship.
Join us for the opening reception and enjoy the exhibition, which continues through August 29.
