Since ancient times in Japan, people have held celebrations called “Sekku” by making offerings to the gods at turning points throughout the year in villages and homes.
In this exhibition, we will introduce the Hina dolls and Samurai dolls that are displayed during the “Sekku”, and hope to provide an opportunity to reconsider the wishes for children’s growth in an era of declining birthrates.
