Next Creation Program: Third Recruitment Round for FY2026 Announced

The Next Creation Program is an artistic and cultural experience initiative for children implemented by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the Tokyo Metropolitan Foundation for History and Culture. To ensure that children can learn at a deeper and higher level, the program allows them to enter the site of creation they are interested in and receive guidance from professionals active on the front lines of each field.

Applications are now open for the "Kids Youth Open Campus" and the "Visual Arts Creation Program." We welcome the participation of children who want to seriously study art and design at a university level.

- Kids Youth Open Campus Hosted at Tokyo University of the Arts and Tamagawa University, this program offers various activities where children can touch upon the joy of art creation, music, and performance alongside teachers and students in university studios and workshops.

- Visual Arts Creation Program Hosted at venues such as Tama Art University, this program aims to cultivate the talents children will need for the future through the creation of art and design works.

Applications can be made via the portal site! The portal site is scheduled to release recruitment information for each program, as well as content introducing their appeal and background, sequentially.
