[Exhibition Extension] The special exhibition “NONRibbon Art: ‘The Ribbon Tied on My Back (Kokeshi Lantern)’ in KUJI” has been extended through Golden Week.

NON’s “Kokeshi Lanterns”—ribbon art pieces that enveloped Kuji in warm light during the depths of winter. We are pleased to announce that the exhibition period for these 15 works, which have traveled all the way from Osaka to Iwate, has been extended through Golden Week (GW)!

Having weathered the harsh winter, the town of Kuji is now beginning to feel the breath of spring.
From now on, these works will continue to gently welcome you as a light “celebrating the arrival of spring.”
As a new chapter of life begins this season, and to create memories of the long holiday, please be sure to stop by.
