Art in Okinawa

[okisteve]

There is a fantastic exhibition of contemporary traditional arts at the Urasoe Art Museum - fabrics, pottery, and lacquerware. For the same ticket you can get in to see OkiTen 60 at the Urasoe city gymnasium, paintings, photography, sculpture, and calligraphy by local artists. It's all judged, so all high quality.

1,000 yen adults

Can you give directions?

My wife was driving, so I can't, but it is not far from 331. Anyone help?
