children's art exchange - Shiga, Japan & Michigan, USA

http://mishigan.blogspot.com/2009/02/annual-art-exchange-through-feb-28.html includes pictures and commentary for the 13th annual exchange of art between the sister cities of St. Johns, Michigan and Konan-shi in Japan. Due to Konan having more than three times as many schools and students, the majority of the pieces displayed at the town libraries in each town are from the Japanese children.

Students of Japanese should be able to recognize some of the subject matter, as well as the written Japanese that appears in some of the pieces.
