If you missed our program with Holly Thompson and Asako Katsura about George Nakashima, Holly will be giving another online talk. Our full program is also available to view on YouTube.
A poetic and moving picture book biography celebrating the life and work of the visionary Japanese American woodworker George Nakashima. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, George Nakashima began a love story with trees that grew throughout his remarkable life as an architect, designer and woodworker.
Author Holly Thompson narrates Nakashima’s life using haibun, a combination of haiku and prose, which twines smoothly through Toshiki Nakamura’s earthy illustrations. Register here.
