Gifted

‘Gifted’ showcases an amazing array of ceramics, paintings, prints and textiles that have been gifted to the City of Whitehorse’s Art Collection from City of Whitehorse’s Sister City, Matsudo, Japan. The sister city relationship between the former City of Box Hill and the City of Matsudo, Japan was one of the first ever forged in Victoria.

Fine silk ‘Hagoita’ bats, dolls and artwork are exhibited together with a selection of woodblock prints donated recently by a local resident with a long association with Japan. These gifts are shown alongside other significant donations to the collection.
