An exciting start to 2020 with our annual exhibition

January 3rd 2020 to January 5th 2020

We were delighted and honoured to have the Consul General of Japan, Chennai, Mr Uchiyama inaugurate the exhibition on the evening of the 3rd, accompanied by Mrs Karen Uchiyama.  Mr Gopinath, President of the Cholamandal Artists Village in our midst, made it all the more special.
