祖国を想う 'Thinking of Homeland'

Our first exhibition has opened.  Sasakawa Foundation is supporting us organise this event. The cafe 'bean' is now showing photos, artworks (above) and the letters written by the children in Nottingham and in Sendai, Japan.  The exhibition has been organised by two charities in Nottingham: 'Thinking of Homeland' and 'Ganbare Japan'.  The artworks (above) were made by 25 Japanese artists, who live away from home to raise money for affected areas by Tsunami.   This is our first exhibition and we are planning to open many more in different cities.  

He is Alex, the owner of the cafe, who has kindly agreed to let us use the space.  
It's the best cafe in Nottingham or perhaps in the UK!
The cafe is located in Beeston, Nottingham, UK.

The photos are from Japan. Robert Gilhooly, a British photo journalist in Tokyo, Japan, has kindly given us his photos. There are captions for each portrait by Rob to see how the survivors have been overcoming the disaster. 


Have a delicious cup of coffee in this cosy cafe and find out more about what is happening in Japan after Tsunami. 


Wish you a very Happy New Year of Dragon!
