Kansas Through the Eyes of an Artist Exhibition at Carriage Factory Art Gallery

The opening reception for the ”Kansas Through the Eyes of an Artist" exhibition was packed!  I loved seeing people enjoying the art and the community.  It was a pleasure and an honor to serve as the judge for such a beautiful scene.  I am from Japan originally, but have been living in Kansas for 28 years now.  I love Kansas and I was so glad to celebrate Kansas Day in this way this year!  What made me most happy was to see the smiles on the artists' faces as I handed out the awards.  Thank you Carriage Factory Art Gallery for the opportunity!
