greetings heARTists and heART lovers all around the world! happy holidays and best wishes for a wonderful 2023.


what’s on your slate for the new year? we have quite a few items on ours.

we’re also making appearances at educational institutions to discuss Japanese war brides.

slowly, we’ve been gathering materials for ‘Tokyo Lily’, a film about Yuri. it will not only cover her early years as WWII began building up in Japan, but also follows her to the US after she marries an American soldier—a former enemy of her country. 

 
later, we feature Yuri’s amazing life as she pursues a slew of artistic endeavors—traditional Japanese dance, oil painting, wood carving, sewing, quilting, crocheting, writing haiku, and more.
