   The relevant section in the standard should be 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/7b8e3e88f6e87437e821ccf15c3ff6f60a8d0ae1/format/Schema.fbs#L277.
 From reading that, I would infer that 
`print(pc.strftime(arr.cast(pa.date32()), '%Y-%m-%d'))` is correct, i.e. the 
local timezone should be used.
   
   But, looking at 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/7b8e3e88f6e87437e821ccf15c3ff6f60a8d0ae1/format/Schema.fbs#L327,
 it also seems that the `timestamp` case is correct. This seems quite 
counterintuitive to me, but the cast here seems to work as a "reinterpret" 
instead of actually updating the underlying values.
