- The Day After Tomorrow Project
The town nurtures the children’s future, and the children nurture the town’s future.
Set in the town of Futako-Tamagawa, we’re thinking about “the near future”
through our “The Day After Tomorrow Project.”
We’ve also launched a website!
http://shiasatte.creative-city.jp/
There are quite a few stories related to “the neighborhood” this month.
Middle school students will guide you through the Sumida neighborhood.
“Explore Sumida! Share Your Story!”
