We are pleased to present a photo exhibition by Yamaguchi-born photographer Mai Nakama from October 24th to November 2nd. Here is her message to all interested: “I am a Japanese photographer. I have taken photos all over Japan. I would be happy to introduce the scenery, people and experiences I have seen in Japan through my photos. I hope that this will lead to communication with the people of Germany.” https://nakamamai.com/work https://www.instagram.com/mai_nakayan/

We have recently received many inquiries about upcoming events, some of which mentioned that not everyone uses social media. Therefore, we have decided to post the events for the next few weeks on our website. However, we cannot always guarantee the accuracy and may not always be able to update this list regularly. You can find everything under: Events / Preview in the menu. We are working on a less time-consuming solution to keep you informed nonetheless. 🙂
Our website has received little attention in recent years. The reason for this is nothing special; it simply fell down our list of priorities. We have been contemplating for some time how to proceed from here, whether there will be a return to a classic blog or whether we will, in keeping with the spirit of the times, limit ourselves to the essential information. This naturally requires a balancing of effort and benefit. What is certain, however, is that we will soon publish an introduction to our partner projects in Tbilisi (Georgia) and Onomichi (Japan) here. In addition, we will now update the content of the subpages.
