Nescafé Harajuku Unveils Cherry Blossom Art Café Event

Nescafé Harajuku has announced its collaboration with watercolor artist Luna Kuranaka for a special event titled Nescafé: Let’s Blossom Together at the Full Bloom Cherry Blossom Art Café.

The event will take place from February 6 to February 28 at Nescafé Harajuku, coinciding with the arrival of the cherry blossom season.

The café aims to promote sustainability through small, thoughtful actions. Visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy limited edition cherry blossom-themed drinks and sweets created by Kuranaka while fostering a positive atmosphere and sharing experiences with others.

Highlights

Interactive Art Project

Participants will have the chance to contribute to a collaborative artwork by affixing colorful cherry blossom petals to a specially designed canvas created by Luna Kuranaka.

This engaging experience encourages creativity and community engagement, culminating in a work of art that will be donated to local medical and care facilities, spreading joy beyond the café.

In alignment with Nescafé's commitment to sustainability, the materials used for the art project—including the canvas and petals—will be upcycled from Nescafé packaging and thinned timber.

This initiative highlights the brand’s dedication to waste reduction and environmentally friendly practices, making each act of participation meaningful.
