Sister City Photographic Exhibition
The Toowoomba-Takatsuki Photographic Exchange began in 2006, when Toowoomba hosted the 15th anniversary celebration of its relationship with Sister City Takatsuki, Japan. The Takatsuki Kōeisha Photograph Association curated an exhibition to commemorate the event, which was displayed in Toowoomba City Hall.
This initial exhibition prompted a yearly photographic exchange, which has become part of Sister City programs between Toowoomba and Takatsuki, fostering a cultural and artistic dialogue that has deepened the relationship between the two cities.
The Toowoomba Regional Council in conjunction with Toowoomba Photographic Society, Takatsuki International Association and the Takatsuki Kōeisha Photograph Association, are proud to present the Sister City Photographic Exhibition for the enjoyment of the Toowoomba Region and Takatsuki City residents.
Takatsuki Kōeisha Photograph Association have curated a collection of images showcasing the Japanese four seasons from Spring to Winter.
