We are pleased to announce that the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the Tokyo Metropolitan Foundation for History and Culture are consecutively hosting a participatory program, “Team Up for Opera!,” for children to experience the arts and culture. Understanding and nurturing the children’s dreams in the arts and culture and their personalities, the program aims to help develop thriving talents.
Young participants can receive guidance from leading professionals across various fields while engaging in hands-on creative experiences tailored to their interests. This approach enables them to learn at a deeper and more advanced level.
Participants will join workshop programs related to the opera performance “Amahl and the Night Visitors” to be held at the Komae Ecorma Hall on Sun, Sep 20, and at the Tamashin RISURU Hall on Sun, Oct 4.
Please stay tuned as we will post further details on each workshop’s webpage once they become available.
