1. Big Heart Project (Workshop)
Chofu City has been implementing the "Chofu City Para Art Exhibition" since fiscal year 2017 as part of its efforts to enhance a symbiotic society. This exhibition showcases the works of members who are active in welfare workshops and other activities within the city. This year, as a supporting project for the "Para Art Exhibition", we will be implementing the "Big Heart Project" that anyone can participate in. In line with "Para Heart Chofu", we will create palm-sized hearts using colorful masking tape and connect them together to create a large-scale art piece. This project has received participation from various fields, including local welfare organizations, FC Tokyo players, and artists with ties to Chofu. We invite all visitors to come and experience the creation of a large-scale art piece.
The coach, players, and staff of FC Tokyo have also written messages in blue and red hearts!
