Now in its 19th year, “Trolls in the Park” is an international contemporary art exhibition held since 2002 in Zenpukuji Park in Suginami-ku. From 2013, the exhibiting area was expanded to the area around JR Nishi-Ogikubo Station. The exhibition offers arts in diverse forms such as performances in renovated cafes or natural food restaurants, or projects designed to uncover the charms of local neighborhoods. Over three weeks during November, this exhibition allows visitors to enjoy the arts in their local and familiar environment.
