24 January 2002

Ivan Kulichenko
Mayor of Dnipropetrovsk
Ukraine

Dear Mayor

Firstly, my apologies for not writing in Ukrainian.

I am happy to highly recommend to you the proposed exhibition of Ms Zhang’s paintings in your city. Not only do they bring visual pleasure but also convey a sense of peace and tranqullity.

This month she held a successful exhibition in Sydney where all the proceeds were donated to victims of recent devastating bush fires around our city.

Yours Sincerely

Councillor Sam Byrne
Marrickville Council

Sydney, Australia
