Kaleidoscope Series: "World of Butoh" with Kogut Butoh

Welcome to the Kaleidoscope series! Kaleidoscope is a series of free virtual events designed to offer educational content on Japanese gardens and Japanese culture during the Covid-19 pandemic, when access to the physical garden is limited and our usual calendar of interactive cultural events has been cancelled.

First in the series is "The World of Butoh with Kogut Butoh", where we will be exploring Butoh, a modern performance art from Japan, with Joan Laage of Kogut Butoh. This virtual event introduces you to the art and history of Butoh in Japan, Seattle, and the Seattle Japanese Garden.

This event was originally hosted as a webinar with a live Q&A.

We are proud to offer the Kaleidoscope virtual event series with support from The Japan Foundation Center for Global Partnership.
