Waht is ArtRunway®︎?

A new-generation art performance where artists walk the red carpet holding their own artworks.

The Future of ART RUNWAY – “Across Japan, To the World”

Our vision is to expand ART RUNWAY across Japan and beyond, connecting artists and communities through living, breathing art.

💡 We aim to cultivate “ART RUNWAY Curators” in every region—individuals who discover, support, and shine a light on local artists and cultural expressions.

🌟 Artists from across the country will step onto the red carpet and embody their art.
🌟 Each city’s unique culture and creativity will shine on stage.
🌟 Art will come alive—moving hearts and sparking new dialogue.
🌟 With tipping systems and community support, we’ll build a sustainable future for artists.

An open, inclusive stage for the world

We are planting the seeds of ART RUNWAY throughout the nation.
Together with local curators, we envision these seeds growing, blooming into radiant runways all over Japan—and eventually, the world.
