I’m reaching out to encourage you to cover the Sumida Mukojima Expo 2024—a unique art festival transforming the historic Sumida area of Tokyo. This festival brings together local artists and the community in an immersive blend of traditional culture and modern creativity, making it a must-see for foreign residents eager to explore hidden gems beyond typical tourist spots.

The Sumida area’s charm—nestled with "guerilla gardens", tiny temples, and artisan shops—comes alive with artwork that explores this year’s themes: "Flowers" and "Forest." This nature-focused theme is brought to life across public spaces and community events, offering your readers a fresh perspective on life in Tokyo through art, nature, and local craftsmanship. It offers a rare, immersive look at traditional Tokyo combined with modern art, away from typical tourist hotspots. Special guided tours are available in English, Chinese, and Japanese, offering rich cultural insights.
Jennifer Shinkai, an English-speaking contributing artist, is available for interviews to provide your readers with a behind-the-scenes perspective. This is my second time to exhibit in the event and I have been living in the Kyojima area for 15 years (25 years in Japan). You can read about my 2024 exhibit here https://lnkd.in/gTrru4Bu
The Expo runs from October 5 to November 3, and I’d love to help arrange any interviews or provide media access. Please let me know if you need more details or want to schedule an interview.
