FUTAKOTAMAGAWA GATHERING!

FUTAKOTAMAGAWA GATHERING!
Thank you so much to everyone who came out today despite the cold weather! People
I work with and friends from my college days came by with their families,
so it was a great chance to catch up with so many people I hadn’t seen in a long time—I really enjoyed the day♪

———————
[FUTAKOTAMAGAWA GATHERING] The area in front of Futakotamagawa Station has taken on a whole new look! A river running through a giant tunnel, countless paper airplanes, and a world straight out of a picture book brought to life using our whole bodies… and so much more—created by everyone, adults and children alike. The event runs through tomorrow, so if you’re visiting Futakotamagawa, please be sure to stop by!
