A question often asked at our gallery is why B.O.Q.?  In 1964, after 13 years of framing
experience, Akira Kanda, along with his wife Reiko, opened his first gallery.  Many of
the American military personnel stationed in Tokyo at the time were discovering
the beauty of the traditional Japanese print. They flocked to Kandafs Gallery not 
merely to buy but to visit and to learn more about the art and the artists.
The atmosphere was congenial enough that the pilots on TDY (Temporary Duty) began 
to say "Letfs  go to Kandafs B.O.Q. (Bachelor Officers fQuarters) room!"
Kandafs  became their home away from home and Kandafs B.O.Q. began!

Today people are still encouraged to drop by and take time to learn about the art.
The galleries sell works by many artists featuring traditional and contemporary 
Japanese prints.
