The participating artists visited Takayama City!🎨

Recently, Juliana dos Santos, one of the participating artists in the "Forest Art Festival Sunshine Country Okayama 2027," visited Takai City, one of the participating towns.

During their stay, they visited the Mayor of Takao, visited the Takao City Senhawa Art Museum, Bengala Hall, the former Katsuyama residence, and Yurukuji Temple, and learned about the history and culture of Takao City. They also experienced traditional Benaga dyeing, and it was a valuable time to experience the unique charm of the region with their own hands.

This visit is the first of a series of field visits by overseas artists. In Biyou, we were warmly welcomed by the local community and were able to deepen our exchanges.

In the future, participating artists will continue to visit the northern part of the prefecture, and while meeting and discovering the people of the region, they will continue to work on their artwork. We sincerely hope that you will look forward to seeing what we have in store next!
