About Community Engagement Program “Weaving Project”
Commemorating the 15th anniversary of Roppongi Hills this year, this participatory workshop shares thoughts on the community and reflects on its history, together with those who have played a part in its progress, thereby creating a work of art symbolic of Roppongi. The artwork created by the participants will be displayed as part of various events at Roppongi Hills during 2018 as well as on Roppongi Art Night 2018. The participants will urge others from the general public to take part in it, also.

About the “Community Engagement Program”
Symbol of Roppongi Hills’ status as the “cultural heart of the city,” as well as staging exhibitions, since opening the Mori Art Museum has offered a range of learning opportunities via its diverse learning programs. With its aim of extending the settings for learning through contemporary art from the museum right out into the community - i.e. the surrounding neighborhood and wider city - the “Community Engagement Program” is a unique learning program only the Mori Art Museum and Roppongi Hills could offer. Since its launch in 2016, several initiatives tying contemporary art to familiar lifestyle themes, such as music and food, have been rolled out in the local area.
