Tokyo Arigato Project Competition

We’ve been receiving warm support from all over the world since the March 11 earthquake and tsunami. It wasn’t just people in Japan who were affected, people in many countries showed their warmth and support through various creative initiatives, making new connections and bonds across the world.

We are proud to introduce ARIGATO project, founded in association with Tokyo Award, an art and design TV show in Japan and Design Association NPO.

• We are kindly asking professional creators, universities, and members of public to submit their art/design work under the theme of “LOVE”. Open to nine categories:
• • Architecture
• • Interior
• • Products
• • Fashion
• • Textiles
• • Fine Art
• • Media Art
• • Graphic
• • Photography

We believe that design has the power to help rebuild Japan and do good around the world. During this difficult time, we were overwhelmed with messages of support from around the world - we are very grateful to be able to say ARIGATO!
