[ART DRIVE] Fukuoka / Omuta 3rd Charcoal International Exchange Arts Festival

The Calcal City International Arts Festival held in Kyushu and Fukuoka Prefecture. Why don't you enjoy ART through interaction with people living in Omuta?

Fusion of Omuta and contemporary art that once flourished in coal mine! The land of Omuta is blessed with rich nature and coal, and has built a pioneering industry and its own culture. Omuta's population is decreasing year by year with the end of the coal mine, and the vitality of the former town is being lost, but in the town, the building land that has been built by the predecessors remains as it was at the time. The Calcal City International Exchange Arts Festival actively incorporates art perspectives into the region, digs up a sleepy thing in casual or forgetful places, and gets courage and peace of the truth in it, and By reconsidering the diversified value of the town, we will rediscover the charm of the town, be proud, protect them, and take over to the next generation. By reconsidering the beauty of Omuta, which has become part of our lives, through contemporary art, it will bring a new breath.
