[Ueno] Daito Shodoin Calligraphy Exhibition Now On! Through October 21
Overview
The Daito Shodoin Calligraphy Exhibition is now being held in Ueno. It runs until Wednesday, October 21, 2026, so only a few days remain.
The exhibition's Tokyo Shimbun Award has been announced, and it went to Otsuka from Saitama.
One of the joys of a calligraphy exhibition is seeing up close how each work has its own character, from the movement of the brush to the shading of the ink and the use of blank space. If you're planning a visit to Ueno, consider stopping by while the exhibition is on.
The exhibition closes soon, so visit early.
