Video Title:
Matsushima: Remembering the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami
Description:
The Freer and Sackler join the Embassy of Japan in Washington, DC to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami that struck parts of Japan’s eastern shoreline on March 11, 2011. One of the scenic spots of that region are the Matsushima islands in Miyagi Prefecture, which have been praised in poetry and painting for centuries. Their beauty and permanence are symbols of the resilience of the region. We honor our #UnshakableFriendship through the healing power of art.
