The 77th Okayama Prefecture Art Exhibition

About this event

The "77th Okayama Prefecture Art Exhibition" is an exhibition displaying outstanding artworks selected through an open call from residents, workers, and students in Okayama Prefecture. Diverse expressions gather across categories: Japanese-style painting (Nihonga), Western-style painting, crafts, calligraphy, photography, and sculpture. Starting this year, works across all divisions will be exhibited at the Okayama Prefectural Museum of Art.

At the Okayama Venue, Japanese-style painting, crafts, photography, calligraphy, and sculpture will be shown divided into Term I and Term II, along with Western-style painting, Term II calligraphy, and sculpture. At the Tsuyama Venue, Japanese-style painting, Western-style painting, crafts, and photography will be exhibited in Term I, and calligraphy and sculpture in Term II.
