REPORT Located a short distance from the hustle and bustle of the city, Dream Plaza stands quietly at night with few lights. It is a space where one feels nostalgia for the past, where the sound of some crickets singing on the grass is louder than the noise of cars on the nearby Bayshore Road and the Metropolitan Expressway. In this work, lights are suspended from two black balloons floating in midair in this nostalgic space. The balloons, which appear to blend into the night sky, move erratically with the wind and the rope manipulation of the staff on the ground. The suspended lights are like old naked light bulbs, changing brightness, blinking, and flickering irregularly, as if responding to our questions. This impressive one-night-only installation connects the audience with the urban landscape at night.

REPORT In "Omoitsuki no KOE to IRO," Kojima-san first reads a long story slowly to the children. After listening to the story, Kojima-san hands a piece of drawing paper to the children and asks them to freely draw the most memorable scene from the story they have just heard using paints. Some children try their best to draw a cat that appeared in the story, others draw yellow berries all over the paper... The story conveyed by the "voice" blossoms into various colors and shapes in the children's minds and hearts. As Hiramatsu-san looked at the children's drawings, she gave them advice, saying, "That's so cute and cool! Mothers and fathers helped the children complete their drawings. Kojima-san and Hiramatsu-san then reconstructed the picture-story show by replacing or adding to the original story pictures. The pictures drawn by the children were utilized to create the one and only picture story show in the world.

REPORT In this workshop, participants made their own original bag charms using mizuhiki (decorative strings) in colors associated with the 13 public artworks in The Tokyo Waterfront City with the aim of encouraging visitors to become more familiar with the public artworks. During the period, eight workshops were held over a total of four days.
The process of making a bag charm is very simple: choose your favorite mizuhiki from dozens of colors, and bind or weave them together to make a loop. Once the loops are made, the participants then proceeded to make badges to attach to the loops. Graphic designer Chikako Oguma designed a stamp with a motif of public art, which is stamped on a backing paper in the color of your choice, and then processed into an original badge using a badge machine and attached to the wheel. The resulting bag charms were attached to official Art Festival tote bags for participants to take home.

REPORT “ART JINRIKISHA" is a two-part program in which children create wing art in a workshop, attach it to a rickshaw, and then display the completed "ART JINRIKISHA" at Dream Plaza and Yume-no-Ohashi Bridge for a hands-on test ride.
In the workshop, children created art of feathers needed for wings. Leftover Japanese paper, colored paper, and various other materials were cut out in the shape of wings according to a pattern and pasted onto paper straws with wood glue to create the art of wings. The children, who at first made simple feathers, gradually expanded their imagination and combined various materials to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind feathers. Finally, they pasted the many feathers they had created onto a wing-shaped object to complete their colorful wings. The wings, the culmination of the children's individuality and creativity, were attached to the body of the rickshaw to complete the "ART JINRIKISHA.
The general public and parents and children who participated in the workshop enjoyed test-riding the "ART JINRIKISHA.” People strolling in the park couldn't help but stop and smile when they saw this wonderful sight.

REPORT OriHime is an alter-ego robot equipped with a camera, microphone, and speakers, and can be controlled via the Internet. It can realize communication as if it were there with video, voice, and gestures on behalf of people who are hospitalized, working alone, or otherwise unable to go where they want to go.
Participants can join the tour from a remote location using a computer or tablet connected to the Internet. On site, staff members walked around the venue for about an hour while talking with participants and viewing the art with OriHime. The computer browser allows participants to talk with staff while watching camera images as if they were in an online conference, and they can express their emotions using a variety of gestures such as nodding, raising their hands, extending their hands, and clapping. The user can also swing his/her head to the left and right so that he/she can see what he/she wants to see, and the addition of gestures has been well received by the staff, who feel that they can communicate with the staff as if they were having an actual conversation.

REPORT Communicators met with families with babies who had applied in advance at the entrance of the Dream Plaza. After chatting and getting to know each other while viewing the "Territory Gone Wild" at the Plaza, we moved to Stone and Light Square to view Akinori Goto's "Heading" artwork. They listened to the communicator's explanation of the artwork, took commemorative photos with their babies, and enjoyed the art at their leisure. In the green labyrinth of Leandro Erlich's artwork "THE PRINT " in the Flower Plaza, the baby seemed to feel good and was happy to flap his arms and legs. This is a program that allows mothers and fathers who hesitate to visit art museums because they are worried that their babies will start crying to enjoy art in a relaxed atmosphere.
