The Art Committee of LANSCA cultivates art programs to deepen our relationship with children and artists of Nagoya, using this fundamental principal, that art is a way of communicating without words.

LANSCA Art Programs

“Art is an international language understood by all.” So stated Igor Babailov, the Russian American portrait artist. The Art Committee of LANSCA cultivates art programs to deepen our relationship with children and artists of Nagoya, using this fundamental principal, that art is a way of communicating without words.

LANSCA’s Art Committee promotes art exchanges and projects to strengthen the ties between our two cities. The Children’s Art Exchange is a program that has continued through so many decades that no one knows exactly when it started. To further develop our programs, we are building partnerships with existing children’s art programs, galleries, and art organizations. We are seeking to work with organizations in Los Angeles that are interested in building city to city relationships through the arts. We welcome corporate sponsorship to help expand these programs.
