Community event @Hanegi Park: Oct. 12, 2014












Traditional autumn festivals at shrines are seasonal fun for Japanese. We have more. There are various community festivals and events, too.

I visited an event titled “zakkyo festival” (various events in-one-place festival) held in the Hanegi Park, in Setagaya ward.

Music, dance and many other performances were played. Various NGOs and NPOs, including organizations aiming supports for the disabled, held their exhibitions.




Pottery creators from quake-hit Fukushima Prefecture opened stalls. Importers of Asian and African good also opened stalls.

Some events attracted young people while some were not popular. I saw various aspects of social and cultural activities there.
