Opening Night

Last Friday the Rio Gallery hosted the inaugural  exhibit for Topaz: Artists in Internment. It was a successful showing despite the competition with the opening of the Sundance Film Festival in Salt Lake City. Thanks to all who made this opening possible. Thanks to poet Lawson Inada who attracted quite the audience with his storytelling as part of the event. And a special thanks to all those who participated in the Jan Ken poems. Below are some pictures of the event:

    At the opening, the wonderful poet Lawson Inada shared some haiku about the internment camps, and he challenged us all to write a haiku every day. So:

    Mr. Inada,
    Here's my haiku for today.
    Now back to e-mail.

    I'm afraid that's all my brain is capable of today!
