About this Event
It's an official Book Launch party!
We are excited to celebrate the release of A Japanese Art Journey, a deeply personal memoir by renowned Japanese art historian and curator Meher McArthur, published by Tuttle Books.
Through vivid storytelling, McArthur takes readers on a journey from her multicultural upbringing to her life-changing time in Japan and decades-long career curating Japanese art. From delicate paper dolls and woodblock prints to whimsical polka dot pumpkins, this memoir reveals the rich and unexpected world of Japanese art. More than a book about art, it is a story of identity, transformation, and the power of culture to illuminate one’s place in the world.
At this event, author Meher McArthur will present a slide talk about her life and career as a curator of Japanese art and read excerpts from the memoir. Her talk will be followed by a Q&A session and a book signing. We’ll also be serving sake and snacks, and offering raffle prizes—including a signed book, an artwork, and something cute from Japan!
Copies of the book may be purchased during the event from on-site vendor Chevalier's Books. Books purchased on site will be signed by the author.
Admission free, registratin necessary.
