At a time when the globe is once again assailed by new uncertainties caused by a disastrous war, the Committee aspires to present a new world vision never seen before by sharing a wide range of artistic expressions.

(*) Reborn-Art Festival:

Mainly held in Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, the Reborn-Art Festival is a comprehensive festival of art, music, and food. Based on the concept of "Reborn-Art" as a means of living, it started in 2017 in the area devastated by the Great East Japan Earthquake.

Message from Takeshi Kobayashi, Chair, Reborn-Art Festival Executive Committee:

The word "altruism" might lose its meaning once it is explicitly stated. COVID-19, now in its third year, is still pushing us into unknown territory. The Reborn-Art Festival is taking place again, I believe, in order to feel all forms of life and connections to the source of life, and to find new perspectives beyond these difficulties.
