ABOUT THE WAH SALON ART CLUB:
The WAH Center offers an artist membership program called the “WAH Salon Art Club”. Every January, the members can participate in the Annual WAH Salon Show, which gives exposure to artists of a wide range and spectrum – from emerging, to mid-career, and established artists in all media. It fulfills one of the WAH Center’s missions based upon the WAH Founder’s “Bridge Concept”. At the Salon, fine art can meet functional art (craft) and performing art (music, dance, theater, and poetry). Technology can also give means to artist expression. Here, young and old and all nations and cultures can bridge their expressions through the international language of art. In concept, the Salon is all the colors of the artist’s palette. We invite everyone to come and visit us and see the merit of the international “Bridge Concept” in the arts.

Master photographer Joel Simpson spent 10 weeks visiting 12 countries around the world, mostly in Asia. He’s distilled his 40,000 images into a 2-hour slide show of about 1000 of his best images featuring the people, geography, geology, architecture, archaeology, flora, fauna, cultures, and atmospheric effects from Turkey, Jordan, Kenya, Madagascar, India, Nepal, Tibet, China, Mongolia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Japan, with a coda over southern Alaskan mountains at dawn. In addition, he’ll offer tips on travel in third world countries, including getting around, saving money, and traveling light among subjects.

In late October 1996, Yuko Nii founded the non-profit The WAH Center (Williamsburg Art & Historical Center) based upon her Bridge Concept. That concept envisions a multifaceted, multicultural art center whose mission is to coalesce the diverse artistic community, and create a bridge between local, national and international artists, emerging and established artists, and artists of all disciplines. Thus through the internatinal language of art we come to understand each other to create a more peaceful and integrated world. The WAH Center is a force for peace and understanding and its concept is incorporated in its acronym: “WAH” in Japanese means “peace” or “harmony” or “unity”.
