Saturday with Sebastian in Jersey City
On Saturday, March 24, 2018, our Contributing and above members were invited to an afternoon field trip to Mana Contemporary in Jersey City with iconic artist Sebastian Masuda! After traveling by school bus (per his artistic vision), we toured the complex and visited several studios, specially selected by Mr. Masuda, then broke for a snack and discussion about Mr. Masuda’s work and the meaning of kawaii. We ended the day by making our own kawaii messages that will be included in his Time After Time Capsule, which will be exhibited at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games!



Loop of the Loom Outing in Manhattan
On Sunday, February 11, 2018 a small group of Circle of Friends members visited Loop of the Loom on East 87th Street for a Saori Mindful Zen Weaving Workshop. After a brief introduction to loom operation and the how-to’s of threading the bobbin and preparing the shuttle, we all set about the serene experience of combining colors, textures and technique to make our own personal creations.

Contributing ($150) members and above received special complimentary ticket offers to select films to this year's JAPAN CUTS (July 13—23). View the full film schedule.



The Clark in Williamstown, MA

The group enjoyed a private tour of the exhibition led by Curator Jay Clarke, a chance to meet collector Adele Rodbell, a special lecture on ukiyo-e by Professor Julie Davis and free time to explore the exquisite collection, extensive groups and new Tadao Ando-designed building.
