“Sumi-Yume” began in 2016 on the occasion of the opening of the Sumida Hokusai Museum. Katsushika Hokusai was an artist who pursued a universe of phenomena. Like little ink-painted dreams colored in by people from various walks of life, we aim to paint the Sumida area in vivid colors while connecting people who are active not only in the arts and culture, but in all types of expression.
Over a four-month period we’ll present a wide array of projects making use of the Sumida district’s local resources, with “Hokusai” and “Sumida River” as principal themes. While discovering the area’s charms and forming new connections online, the Sumi-Yume Project will make its way “to you, and towards the future.” Share in the excitement!
