What we do

Strategic Planning Programs

In these programs, we strive for new artistic and cultural creation and to generate opportunities for participation, leveraging planning and coordination that takes into account the entire organization of Arts Council Tokyo (Tokyo Metropolitan Foundation for History and Culture). We provide think-tank functions through a range of survey and research activities and by promoting Tokyo’s artistic and cultural attractions through various media.
