Israel will be the honored country at the 1983 “Memphis In May,” a month long festival and fair in Memphis, Tennessee. Yehoshuo Trigar, the Consul General of Israel for the southeastern United States, accepted the invitation on behalf of his government from Tom Hutton, president of “Memphis In May,” a cultural and trade event.

During the “Memphis In May” festival next year, Israeli paintings will be on display at art galleries in Memphis, local shops will carry Israeli goods, museums will display exhibits from Israel, and local theaters will present Israeli plays and films.
