Business Overview

A reading and storytelling event based on the Reggio Emilia approach from northern Italy was held at IID Setagaya School of Manufacturing. They also held a three-month course to train citizens to perform at the event. The event attracted 120 participants with 3 citizen performers, 4 invited performers and 2 art workshop artists. The event was also streamed online because some people were reluctant to participate due to the coronavirus pandemic. 1 month and a half after the event was held, an online event "artenarra forum 2022" was held, where experts, organizers and participants discussed the meaning and potential of citizens' involvement in culture and art to deepen their understanding.

Profile

【 Artenara 】
Based on the Reggio Emilia approach in northern Italy, which provides education and child-rearing centered on the local community, and the Reggionara (storytelling art event) held there, Artenara started its activities in 2017. In Japan, too, the lack of local communities, such as the nuclear family and the isolation of child-rearing, is a social problem, and we are implementing a cultural project as a comprehensive art project with three pillars: "to raise children with everyone in the community," "to create a place for adults and children," and "to create a community where people will like the town."
