Sounds like an interesting event. Come listen to Ms. Dougherty's Peace Corps adventures , enjoy the art, time with your friends and meet some of your neighbors you don't currently know.

For those unfamiliar with Buddhist art annd beliefs, the imagery, symbolism and references were unintelligible. Perhaps an information sheet listing key images and their relation to Buddhist thought could be prepared and laminated so viewers can consult it while gazing at the works.

Perhaps someone will give a talk about the themes of the works.
