Artist MUSASHI, managed by Aslight LLC, is expanding their reach with an upcoming solo exhibition at the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo, a nationwide tour for a collaboration event with Lotte's Bikkuriman, and continued growth.

The Osaka-Kansai Expo 'World MUSASHI Solo Exhibition' was a great success, featuring not only individual works but also collaborations with 150 companies, organizations, and artists. We continue to collaborate with all our partners on various projects. One of these, 'Three Peace,' is planning its first-ever organized event, 'Three Peace Grand Sports Day,' this summer.

About Three Peace

Three Peace is a charitable activity that began in 2019 when professional basketball player Naoto Tsuji met a boy undergoing medical treatment. Inspired by the encounter, Tsuji decided to 'contribute to society through basketball.' For every three-point shot made during a game, 3,333 yen is donated. At the end of each season, a portion of these funds is donated to children in hospitals and orphanages, and basketball equipment is also gifted. In 2025, an operating organization was established, with fellow professional basketball player Daichi Taniguchi also joining. In March of this year, the general incorporated association Three Peace (Representative Director: Naoto Tsuji) was founded, further expanding its scale.

How MUSASHI and Three Peace Met

The connection between Three Peace and MUSASHI began at last year's Expo solo exhibition. A board member of Three Peace and the administrative director of the 'World MUSASHI Solo Exhibition' were old friends, leading to an introduction and the realization of a collaboration with Three Peace. The artwork '3PEACE' that MUSASHI drew on a panel for the Expo exhibition has since been used as the official logo for Three Peace.

The Three Peace collaboration artwork panel exhibited at the Expo is still used as Three Peace's official logo.

'Three Peace Grand Sports Day' to be Held in July

This year, on July 19th (Sun), Three Peace will hold its first organized event, 'Three Peace Grand Sports Day.' The venue is Open House Arena Ota (Ota City, Gunma Prefecture), and it is an interactive event enjoyable for both children and adults. The event, where participants can play seriously on the court with players Naoto Tsuji and Daichi Taniguchi, was so popular that the initial capacity of 100 participants and 500 spectators was quickly oversubscribed. The acceptance limit was increased, and with approximately 1200 people in total, registration has already closed.

Look Out for Uniforms Featuring MUSASHI's Original Art

Making its debut on the day of the event are the Three Peace uniforms designed with MUSASHI's art. Both Naoto Tsuji and Daichi Taniguchi will wear these uniforms on the court, and they will also be displayed in a photo booth. Lucky attendees who can make it to the event should definitely take the opportunity for a commemorative photo.

The event is sure to be lively, and it is expected that Three Peace's recognition will rapidly increase. While we hope to see the expansion of social contribution activities through sports in Japan, not just basketball, we would be delighted if MUSASHI's art could play a part in this movement.
