displays "Oshika no Bienkyo" at "Reborn Art Festival 2017"
Since the Great East Japan Earthquake, the "Let's Connect Together!" project was launched with the aim of providing support to the affected areas, mainly in Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture. We have continued to carry out activities that are unique to us, a company that has been creating "places where people gather" and "spaces where people can enjoy themselves," which is our main business.
This summer, "Oshika no Bouenkyo" is being displays at the Reborn Art Festival 2017, an art festival being held with the main venue being the Oshika Peninsula in Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture.

■Overview of "Oshika's Mirror"
The Oshika Peninsula is formed by 28 beaches, and there are many unique beauty of the peninsula.
And one more thing, the scenery of the Oshika Peninsula becomes even more precious when you learn about the existence of "landscapes where people have lived." Due to the effects of the earthquake, the houses on the beach are now sparse, but when you learn about the existence of the landscape where many people were born and raised, and live with fishing and festivals, the scenery of the beach becomes even more beautiful. Isn't it going to look precious? Based on this way of thinking, we have interviewed people who were born and raised on each beach on the Oshika Peninsula and now live far away to introduce the beautiful scenery where the nature and life of each beach are mixed. It is a work that hopes that the scenery that can no longer be seen, the scenery that can still be seen, and various Oshika scenery will be conveyed to the people who visited the art festival, and that a new “connection” will be born between the Oshika Peninsula. .
