SUMMARY:A Journey in Moments: Photography by Daniel Ng
DESCRIPTION:Visit Portland Japanese Garden this summer to see an exhibition of stunning photography by one of our members! The sights and scenes one encounters while traveling\, though fleeting\, can nevertheless leave an impression that resonate throughout the course of a life. For its inaugural Garden Gallery exhibition\, Portland Japanese Garden is thrilled to present A Journey in Moments: The Photography of Daniel Ng\, on display from May 28 through August 10. Ng is a Photographer Member whose work was selected through a Call for Photography issued in early 2026. Travelogue-inspired and vibrant in color and composition\, Ng’s work was taken over the course of a 2024 trip to Japan as well as during visits to the Garden during Photographer Hours. Ng’s photography invites contemplation of the subtle beauty encountered in the everyday\, and the impact of thoughtful exchange across cultures. From the serene lines of Japanese temple architecture and the gentle clouds of sakura blossoms in a clear sky\, to the natural patterns of street traffic in bustling Tokyo\, Ng captures scenes across a spectrum of peace and excitement familiar to visitors to Japan\, inviting the viewer to dream of returning again and again. Included with garden admission.

SUMMARY:Qigong
DESCRIPTION:Looking to slow down\, breathe deeper\, and move with intention? Join instructor Steven for a calming Qigong session beneath the canopy of the Hoyt Arboretum.

The low-impact meditative nature makes it great for all levels whether you’re looking to reduce stress\, improve balance\, or feel a little more grounded. Come move with the rhythm of nature and leave feeling refreshed—body and mind. This event is coordinated by Hoyt Arboretum and registration is required through their website.

SUMMARY:Cultural Performance: Oregon Koto-Kai
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a free koto performance by Oregon Koto-Kai at 1:15pm at the Cathy Rudd Cultural Corner in the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Arts Learning Center. The standard Koto is a thirteen-string plucked zither introduced to Japan in the 7th century. It has been part of the Gagaku court ensemble for over a thousand years\, becoming popular among the merchant classes in the Edo period (1600-1868). An important member of the traditional Sankyoku ensemble\, along with the three-string Shamisen and Shakuhachi (bamboo flute)\, the Koto developed further in a solo capacity\, eventually becoming one of Japan’s most prominent musical instruments. Today\, its varied repertoire and wide range of playing techniques provide a rich palette of sound textures\, making the Koto appealing to audiences worldwide. Learn more about Koto. Included with garden admission.
