The garden of “Kuruto,” the hub of art project HAPPY TURN / Kozushima, used to be a sandy piece of ground surrounded by concrete walls. Nowadays it is firmly established as an after-school meeting place for children, who play all sorts of games there. Recently, a local resident started cultivating a vegetable plot in the garden, with the idea that it would be nice if children and moms could bring home some vegetables.
If we cut the grass of other disused gardens on the island like the garden at “Kuruto” and held picnics, people would come, and they could be places where the islanders could gather and where things could happen or begin. This event marks Part 2 of the Shima no niwa-biraki” island garden development project, launched with this aim in mind. We look forward to your participation.
