Spring finally returns and with the change of weather comes a flurry of activity in and around Tokyo, as this year's Roppongi Art Night is welcomed back. Running from 10 a.m. on March 23 until 6 p.m. the next day, the festival hosts a diverse collection of new and established artists, some showing for the very first time, and some participating from abroad.
Starting in 2009 and briefly canceled in 2011 following the Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami, the event has gone on to become an important date in the creative calendar of Japan and East Asia.
Straddling a number of sites throughout the greater Roppongi area, the venues include The National Arts Center Tokyo, 21_21 Design Sight, Tokyo Midtown, Suntory Museum of Art, Roppongi Hills, Mori Art Museum and Roppongi Shopping Street.
