"CHIBA ART FESTIVAL 2019" has ended.
Thank you for coming! Please look forward to 2020.
About Chiba Art Festival
The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games is not only a sports festival, but also a perfect chance to broadcast the cultural appeals of the Prefecture.
Taking advantage of this, in 2018, Chiba Prefecture selected “Chiba Cultural Assets” (objects and experiences that characterize the various rich beauties of Chiba culture) with the help of Chiba citizens.
With the aims of spreading awareness of these Assets to the public, a “Chiba Cultural Assets” themed art event will be held.
During the event period, the appeals of “Chiba Cultural Assets” will be displayed in a variety of ways, such as with painting and photo exhibitions, digital art, projection mapping, art workshops, live performances, and more.
About Chiba Cultural Assets
“Chiba Cultural Assets” are objects and experiences that characterize the various rich beauties of Chiba Culture. The Assets were selected with Chiba Citizens from among numerous other Chiba Cultural Assets. The Assets are not limited to traditional items, but also include modern architecture, scenery, and other objects and experiences that spread the cultural appeal of Chiba Prefecture.
