Shige Higashi, Publisher of Cultural News

Japanese art and culture had developed to its peak during the Edo period (17th – 19th centuries) due to the self-isolation policy by the Tokugawa Shogunate. Especially Japanese paintings are recognized as the world class by art enthusiasts in the Western world.   

But traditional Japanese art and culture are endangered species. By the effects of the modernization, artisans and their customers, and performers and their audiences, are disappearing so fast.

By publishing Cultural News, we are trying to promote traditional Japanese culture and build bridges between the people of Japan and the people of the world.

Please help us to pursue these missions by placing advertisement at Cultural News. The prices are moderate and affordable for small businesses and cultural classes.
