The Elementary School Art Show

Usually the old City Hall Building in Shizuoka is closed when I am there on the weekend. 




My friend and I noticed it was open on a Saturday afternoon, so we decided to take a look inside.  



There was an art festival going on! I think the theme was local sites and events.  I recognized many places I've visited in the area - Nihondaira Zoo, Sengen Shrine, other shrines or temples, the lantern festival, Miho Lighthouse, bugs, Mt. Fuji,  the Shimizu Port, fireworks, the Toro Ruins, S-Pulse soccer team, sakura shrimp, Sumpu Castle, an onsen, Tanabata Festival, strawberries, green tea picking, cherry blossoms, Minato Festival.



















I took photos of all of the pictures, but I am only showing a few.  Otherwise it would be a very long post.

    That is an interesting building, because it does not look Japanese at all. It seems to have more of a Spanish Mission feel.

    Pamela: I love this art show, thank-you for sharing with us.
    I totally love the painting with the beetles on the tree trunks.
    Mike said when he lived in Japan the people in his area had beetles as pets.
    Amazing I think.
