Artists interested in displaying art at the Setouchi International Art Festival in 2010 took a 2 day tour around the islands of the Seto Inland Sea on August 11th and 12th.  Both days were hot, but it was great weather for a tour of 5 of the islands in the inland sea.  Jeremy Lanig from the International Affairs Division and Juliana Watanabe, an Overseas Technical Trainee, were interpreters during the tour.

The tour went to Naoshima, Shodoshima, Ogijima, Teshima, and Megijima and learned about the rich and deep culture and history of the islands while enjoying the beautiful nature.  The tour also included the museums and art house projects of Naoshima.
