Blue Pants Arts supported WeHope’s vision of spreading awareness of the ‘comfort women’ issue through music, dance, mixed media, and and an open discussion session with a guest speaker. Blue Pants Arts provided consultation on performance direction, contacted composers and artists to participate in this event, led rehearsals for the performers, secured a performance venue, created the program booklet, and provided marketing and fundraising for the event.
