May 4th, 2011 § Leave a Comment
When the massive earthquake struck off the coast of Japan, churning up a devastating tsunami that swept over cities and farmland in the northern part of the country on March 11, 2011, the world felt the emotional hardships the Japanese community would have to bear in the coming months. Inspired by a (CNN) story on rescue workers and volunteers creating a makeshift photo gallery set up for villagers to look for their memories before the disastrous waves hit; Ben James, Jaewon Cho, Stephan Baik, Josh Jefferis, Jason Ambrose wanted to help, so they came up with an idea for a local photo exhibition PHOTO:JAPAN where a gallery of “Photos from friends’ trips to Japan”would be on display, the proceed would benefit Save the Children International’s efforts in Japan. PHOTO: JAPAN is this Friday, May 6th 6:00 – 11:00, 1118 Abbot Kinney (near Westminester), this is a First Friday Abbott Kinney event.

When the viewer purchases a small photo, they can take it off the wall and away with them. We will take the larger canvas images down throughout the night as they sell as well. These will be sold for prices to be set later this week. There goal is simple: empty the wall by the end of the night. All proceeds will go to Save the Children International’s efforts in Japan.
