1st Japan International Art Festival Sponsor: Yumeshima New Industry and Urban Creation Organization

The Japan International Art Festival is a new art festival that will be held in conjunction with the 2025 Japan International Exposition. Both before and after the Expo, the Yumeshima New Industry and Urban Creation Organization (a company) aims to co-create art, design, science, technology, and the economy in Kyoto, the millennium capital and the cultural capital where the Agency for Cultural Affairs is located. We will continue to do so every year. The event period in 2023 will be from September 1st to October 15th, and the main venue will be the world cultural heritage site Daigoji Temple in Kyoto, connecting galleries, studios, corporate showrooms, university research laboratories, art museums, etc. in Kyoto City and Kyoto Prefecture. From there, we will connect Osaka, the whole country, and the world, opening up a future where life shines from Japan to the world.
