Aura Inc. (Headquarters: Tokyo) will hold an experiential workshop " Generative AI x Education Event" that nurtures children's creativity at the Isetan Randoseru Festival 2027.
This event is an implementation of an educational curriculum developed by Aura as an experiential program at the Isetan Randoseru Festival 2027. Through miniature dress making and an AI runway experience, the event provides a new educational experience fusing analog creation with AI.
■ Track Record: Highly evaluated even at government events
This program was also implemented at an event hosted by Nerima Ward, receiving such a strong response that all 12 reservation slots were fully booked, leaving some children unable to participate.
On the day, 58 people participated over about 4 hours, making it a tremendous success.
After participating, there were comments such as, "Family conversations expanded at home talking about the experience," leading to its evaluation as an educational program with lasting experiential value.

■ "Digital-Analog Education" expanding from fashion modeling
The "digital-analog education" deployed by Aura is an educational model that nurtures children's thinking and creative skills by cycling through analog creation and AI utilization.
In this program, participants first experience making things by thinking for themselves, and then the structure expands their ideas using AI. Through this, the objective is to nurture "thinking skills" rather than depending on AI.
As a specific example of the initiative, children use a miniature torso and combine materials like lace and ribbons to design their own original dress three-dimensionally. The completed work is digitized by AI and can be experienced as a fashion show walking down a runway on a screen.
Through this experience, they can naturally learn elements of STEAM education such as:
Art (Design)
Technology (AI)
Engineering (3D structure)
Science (Material understanding)
Mathematics (Compositional balance)
■ "Creation x School Preparation" experienced at Isetan Shinjuku Store
In this workshop, we provide an experience where children themselves design and create a security buzzer cover.
The produced work can be used as a "Mamori Dress (Protection Dress)" attached to a randoseru (school bag).
It is a new project where you can simultaneously experience "awareness of safety" and "cultivation of creativity" along with the randoseru, a symbol of school preparation.
■ Expansion as a department store event
This project is an initiative to roll out an educational program developed by Aura as an experiential event.
Furthermore, Aura has established the "Aura Creative Education Research Institute" as a research base for creative education, and has already announced this initiative. The institute is active as an educational institution advancing demonstrations and research in collaboration with nursery schools in Yokohama City.
Moving forward, we plan to further expand the societal implementation of this program through collaborations with department store events and educational institutions.
