10,000th Visitor to Inter+Play Season 1: Arts Towada 10th Anniversary Exhibition

The Towada Art Center celebrated its 10,000th visitor to Inter+Play Season 1: Arts Towada 10th Anniversary Exhibition on Tuesday, September 23. Inter+Play is a three-part exhibition that celebrates the tenth anniversary of Arts Towada, the city-wide initiative that promotes art throughout the city of Towada and along its main thoroughfare of Kanchogai Avenue.

The first season of the exhibition features the works of SUZUKI Yasuhiro, 目 [mé], TSUDA Michiko, evala, and MATSUBARA Megumi, which are on display not only inside the museum but also throughout the city. The 10,000th visitors to the exhibition were a couple from Akita City in Akita Prefecture.

To commemorate the occasion, museum director WASHIDA Meruro presented the couple with a copy of the Inter+Play Season 01 catalog, as well as a pair of complimentary tickets to the Towada Art Center, a voucher for a limited-time exhibition dessert available at the Cube Café & Shop, and a Towada Art Center eco bag.

The couple shared their thoughts on exhibiting artist MATSUBARA Megumi’s installation, saying that they were intrigued by the work’s concept of red and how it changes over time. They also commented that they were thrilled to be lucky enough to be the 10,000th visitors to the exhibition, as it marks one of their first outings since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Thank you to everyone who has visited the Towada Art Center. Inter+Play Season 1: Arts Towada 10th Anniversary Exhibition is on display until Sunday, August 29, 2021.
