Dear Friends and supporters of the Sainsbury Institute,
The year of the snake brought with it much snow and freezing temperatures to Norwich. We hope that you will enjoy the second edition of our e-magazine in the warmth and comfort of your home or office. If you appreciated our first e-edition, you will be delighted to discover more about the Institute and Japanese arts and cultures. The Friend’s scheme that we launched last year has already had a good start. To date we have hosted two exciting events for our friends: a book launch by Research Director, Professor Nicole Rousmaniere, and a New Year’s party at 64 The Close. As we previously announced, in the near future this e-magazine will be an exclusive treat for members of our Friend’s scheme. Please hurry and sign up! – Mami Mizutori, Executive Director
