With the mission of "Co-creating art, design, science, technology, and economy - conveying the beauty and spirit of Japan to the world and creating the future," the Japan International Art Festival will be held over the same six-month period as the Osaka-Kansai Expo, which will see the participation of 158 countries and regions and seven international organizations, through a network that will take place at the Expo site and in Kyoto, Osaka, Kansai, and across the country, contributing to the creation of a virtuous cycle between culture and art, the economy, and society, and a well-being future where life shines. We hope that the Expo will serve as an opportunity to expand the circle of co-creation in diverse culture and art, science and technology, and economy with countries around the world. ************************************** Yumeshima New Industry and Urban Creation Organization (Inc.) / Secretariat: Healthy Urban Design Institute, Inc. https://yumeshimakikou.org/ Mainichi Shimbun Building, 3-4-5 Umeda, Kita-ku, Osaka 530-0001 Email: info@yumeshimakikou.com TEL: 06-6136-8803 ***************************************
