The closing party at Michiko Yanagi's Four Seasons Gallery in Saitama was planned as a Japanese-American potluck. We American artists had packed food and utensils in among our clothes and art supplies. We had prepared it that afternoon in one location and our Japanese hosts prepared food for us in another location. That evening there was food upstairs and down - Japanese dishes and American dishes arranged generously on large tables. Our hosts gave out as party gifts "magic" eye glasses, which made party goers appear enveloped in rainbows. It was an evening to celebrate, relax and enjoy.
