Through partnerships with Japan’s foremost arts and culture organizations and efforts to publicize their artistic and cultural assets, we will raise Ueno’s profile at home and abroad by highlighting its appeal as a hub for arts and culture in Tokyo. As co-sponsors, Arts Council Tokyo and the Implementation Committee for New Concept “Ueno, a Global Capital of Culture” will together implement programs aimed at developing Ueno’s potential as a treasure trove of cultural resources, including joint events involving the various cultural facilities clustered in the Ueno district.
