■ What is "Kasugai Dokodemo Art Door"?
"Kasugai Dokodemo Art Door" is an outreach program organized by the Kasugai Citizen's Culture Foundation. Its purpose is to provide cultural and artistic experiences to those who find it difficult to visit cultural facilities or have few opportunities to engage with arts and culture. Artists who have stepped out of cultural facilities visit schools, kindergartens, daycare centers, welfare facilities, and community centers. It is an initiative that allows people to experience diverse forms of expression, such as music and art, in familiar settings.
■ Regarding support from FY2026
The company agrees with the purpose of this program and plans to provide support as a corporate sponsor for "School Art Door," a school-specific outreach program, starting from FY2026. The aim is to create opportunities for children to experience arts and culture through fields such as music, drawing, and art.
*Specific program details and investment amount for FY2026 are yet to be determined.
■ Regarding collaboration with "Million People's Classic Live"
It has also been decided that Eiken-gumi, acting as the Tokai branch of the "Million People's Classic Live" general incorporated association, will organize and deliver "Million People's Classic Live" as part of its social contribution activities to facilities and organizations that were not selected in the public lottery for "Kasugai Dokodemo Art Door." This initiative involves collaboration among a private company, a general incorporated association, and a public interest incorporated foundation to spread cultural and artistic experiences in the region.
The company will continue to engage in social contribution activities through culture and art in cooperation with local communities and related organizations.
