Mendocino Sister Cities Association presents “Friendship between Two Towns – Art and Culture Exchange. The 18th Mendocino Sister City International Art Exhibition is a Joint Show at the Mendocino Art Center, featuring five Miasa-Omachi Artists and fourteen Coast Artists in various media: Glass Art, Ceramics, Painting, Fiber Art, Photography, and Mixed Media. Additionally, Tea Ceremony demonstration and Japanese Dance (Nihonbuyou) are planned at the opening reception.

As our heartfelt welcome, the Genryu Miasa Taiko group will perform to open the event. The seven members are excited to be in Mendocino for this opportunity.

While you are enjoying the art, culture, and taiko, you also can experience the taste of Japan with sake, Japanese rice wine. This fundraising activity is made possible by Mendocino College Ceramics Department for studio support as well as the artists who donated their talents and time. There will be plenty of “one of a kind” handmade sake cups awaiting you to choose. Each cup costs $20 with three tickets, which helps Miasa-Omachi artists and MSCA.

Please join us and immerse yourself in this unique cultural evening.
