“Sumiyume” began in 2016 on the occasion of the opening of the Sumida Hokusai Museum. Katsushika Hokusai, 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.
In 2019, the 170th anniversary of Hokusai’s death. The project will further enhance the area’s appeal through programs that embody the unique “Sumida” spirit. Everyone is welcome!
