~Art Experience with Cider in Hand~ SAKE ART x St. Cousair Hold First Collaborative Special Workshop

St. Cousair Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Iizuna Town, Nagano Prefecture / Representative Director and President: Ryota Kuze) will hold a special workshop in its first collaboration with "SAKE ART" (Sake Art, hereinafter "SAKE ART"), an art experience studio organized by ARTLIER Co., Ltd. (Representative Director: Kentaro Meguro), at the annual event 'Iizuna Cider Garden 2026', which will be held on Saturday, May 16, 2026, at the St. Cousair Winery Main Store Garden Plaza.

Until now, "SAKE ART" workshops have been held indoors, but this time, as a joint project with St. Cousair, a special outdoor workshop will be held for the first time, moving out of the studio.

What is SAKE ART?

"SAKE ART," an art experience studio organized by ARTLIER Co., Ltd., offers a new style of art experience workshop where participants enjoy painting while drinking alcohol (or soft drinks), based on the concept of "making art more accessible and enjoyable."

At this event, you can enjoy a new art experience that engages all five senses, with wine, cider, or soft drinks in hand, under the blue sky of St. Cousair's hill surrounded by beautiful nature.

Background of the Collaboration ~Aiming to boost Iizuna Town's industry and tourism together~

This collaboration began when ARTLIER Co., Ltd., a startup supported by the Nagano Prefectural Industrial Technology Division, was introduced to us.

When a St. Cousair representative actually experienced "SAKE ART," they were deeply moved by the immersive feeling of concentrating on the canvas while enjoying a drink, leading to the desire to "realize this special experience on St. Cousair's hill."

The two companies, brought together by local connections, shared the vision of "combining the local resource of cider culture with art to further boost Iizuna Town's industry and tourism," leading to this first collaboration.
