Overseas Study Visit Program for Arts Management Professionals

Providing Young Art Management Personnel with the Opportunity to Promote Their International Activities

In order to create creativity that fascinates the world as the center of the art scene in Japan and abroad, and to strengthen its function as an international art hub by making maximum use of the art and cultural resources accumulated in Tokyo, young art management personnel who will play a role in connecting artists and society in the future will be dispatched to art festivals and other events for a short period of time, and opportunities will be provided to build networks with people involved in art and culture overseas to become the first step in international activities. In addition, through direct contact with pioneering works and creative sites overseas, we aim to foster creative momentum from an international perspective. In the future, we will deepen cooperation between Tokyo and each of our clients and build and strengthen networks between Tokyo and overseas sectors.
