Enthusiastic youths gathered in Nagano for Japan Institute of Social Innovation & Entrepreneurship #JSIE’s leadership workshop. We worked together to crystallize plans for ventures on issues closest to heart.

It was eye opening to play mentor and judge.

A fun break on a summery weekend with fellow #FCCJ members at #Nihonga artist Allan West’s studio in #Yanaka. The visit was an opportunity extended at the Club’s “Around the Table” dinner in spring, where Allan was special guest.

Something’s abuzz in the #FCCJ’s kitchen as its staff brings out new menu ideas and seeks first reactions from the Club’s F&B Committee. The newly adopted motto: think out of the box. They advise us they have a new dessert to bring to FCCJ diners soon.

What a joy to have w us #AllanWest, Nihonga artist, at #FCCJ ‘s “Around the Table” event, an intimate dining experience limited to 10. An amazing group turned up — in the end we all agreed that defining a genre such as “Nihonga” paves way for its heritage to pass on thru generations.
