In order to realize a society in which everyone can enjoy arts and culture, the Government will support efforts aimed at improving accessibility by private organizations implementing arts and culture projects. The aim is to increase the number of examples of support for viewers and participants who need support, to create opportunities for them to come into contact with art and culture, and to disseminate widely throughout society the need to improve accessibility to art and culture.
Grant programs open for applications
Tokyo Art and Culture Appreciation Support Subsidy | Application Guidelines
In fiscal 2025, with the World Athletics and Deaflympics to be held this autumn as an opportunity, we will expand our assistance by establishing a new "2025 Momentum Building Program" to further promote viewing support. In addition, from this fiscal year, the requirements for an applicant organization to be located in Japan will be relaxed, and private organizations will be encouraged to support the viewing of exhibitions and performances held in Tokyo.
