Midsummer Festival in Shiryokan
It is the second anniversary of the Midsummer Festival following last year.

SIAF Lab participated in the "WRO Media Art Biennale 2019" held in Poland in May of this year, and made a successful balloon-based art project "Space-Moere Project" locally.

On the day, the results will be reported and the archive video will be shown.

At the venue, we will prepare special booklets and Polish sweets to introduce the Space-Moere project! Enjoy the summer solstice night while enjoying the mild climate unique to this season.
