based on a foundation of culture, looking from different viewpoints at the way that we live.
The Grand Mécénat Award was awarded to Gallery A4 (Tokyo) for its presentation and communication of a wide
range of themes, including environmental themes, that relate to architecture, basing this work on the question ofwhat a truly rich way of living actually is, which in turn is part of the broader question of whether values thatprioritize economic effect are appropriate for our society.

for initiatives that use culture to contribute to society. Activities firmly rooted in their local community include
work to ensure the continuity and development of the traditional Bingata craft of Okinawa (Bank of The Ryukyus),
collaboration with a local self-help group to establish and run a library for children in Kenya (Nippon Koei), and avaried program driven by local participation that engages with the regional resource of the Sumida River from acultural perspective (Asahi Beer). Activities that actively train new generations include the use of management
resources to teach communication skills to children (Dentsu), and work with amateur orchestras around Japan totrain young people who will go on to take leading roles in regional music culture (Toyota). Another winning
activity was recognized for creating a reliable outlet for artists to present their work, thereby supporting the creationof art based on new ideas (Shiseido).
The judges also examined many deserving activities that could not be included among the winners this time,
including ongoing cultural activities contributing to post-disaster recovery, a variety of activities training new

Gallery A (Tokyo)“Enjoy architecture” Management of Gallery A4
When Takenaka Corporation moved its headquarters to Toyocho in February 2005, it opened Gallery A 4 as partof its contribution to the local community. Initially, a special Gallery committee was set up, consisting mainly ofpeople from the company’s design department. The gallery was later incorporated, and then, in 2013, became apublic interest incorporated foundation.
The “A4” in the gallery name is pronounced “A-quad” (A to the power 4). A to the power 3 signifies the three
dimensions of space, or in other words, architecture, and the additional A signifies Atmosphere or Amusement.
Alternatively, the name can be interpreted as adding a time factor to Architecture, indicating Amusement in four
dimensions.
Based on this concept, the gallery organizes 7-9 exhibitions each year, and has so far presented a total of 75
exhibitions. In 2013, its Tove Jansson exhibition introduced Jansson‘s lifestyle and thinking from her records ofliving on an island. Also notable is the Modernism in Wooden Structure series, through which the gallery has
examined and conveyed the attractiveness and potential of wooden architecture along with an in-depth look at its
historical context. Through exhibitions like these, the gallery has gained a reputation for explicating culture from its
own distinctive perspective. Its technique of careful inspection of the workings of nature and humankind to
examine things from multiple facets is a testament to the consistent gaze of Japanese monozukuri and the spirit andattitudes of master craftspeople. The exhibitions are complemented by symposiums on the same themes, and thegallery also holds monozukuri workshops, including programs that are accessible to local children as well as toadults.
Underlying this variety of approaches is the desire to inspire the way of thinking that informs architectural
culture, predominantly from the perspective of designing the way that we live, and to help a large number ofvisitors to discover the many enjoyable things concealed in our everyday lives.
Outstanding features of winner’s support for arts:
Based on the culture of our daily lives in relation to architecture, this program uses its own distinctive techniques
to communicate a variety of ways of thinking about culture./The Gallery’s contribution to society includes taking
up aspects of Japanese architectural culture that are fading away, providing the opportunity and motivation to
re-assess them.

Sumida River Art Project 2013: Enjoying Edo―"naimazeya!" Nanboku Tsuruya
The river used to be a home to whitefish, and a place where people could swim and relax. Asahi Beer’s Sumida
River Art Project (SRAP) is based on a view of the Sumida River as a vital regional resource, and on a desire forthe river to become such a place once again. SRAP is an 80-year project, running from 2009 to 2089, and involves
working with the local community, artists, and other creative people to keep communicating the idea of a riverside
culture that everyone can help to create and everyone can enjoy. It is an initiative that attempts to create
opportunities for large numbers of people to pay attention to the Sumida River and take action.
Each summer, Sumida River Art Project organizes a range of activities day and night for a month and a half,
working from its base at Asahi Art Square next to the Asahi Beer head office by Azumabashi bridge, and extending
to nearby temples, shrines, and public spaces, and even to boats on the Sumida River. Recently, each year has taken
up a theme in an “Enjoying Edo” series, focusing on literary stars and artists who were active locally during theEdo period. In 2013, the choice was playwright Tsuruya Nanboku, so the main venue was adapted to look like an
Edo-period theater. That year, approximately 40 projects were organized, each taking inspiration from the Sumida
River, Edo, or Tsuruya Nanboku. These projects included a fashion show of Edo kimono, a Gidayu session for
beginners, scary stories told by a Zen monk, a workshop for making musical instruments from scrap provided by alocal engineering shop, and a night festival with performers including a children’s gamelan group. Some eventswere planned by the organizers, and others were mixed in following a call for public participation. Musician Otomo
Yoshihide’s Ensembles Parade/Sumida River Music Liberated Zone included over 200 performers, each playing
their own favorite instruments, and filling the town with music.
SRAP also organizes seasonal events such as cherry-blossom viewing in spring, moon viewing in autumn, andsnow viewing in winter, followed by a succession of varied projects for enjoying the Sumida River through art.
SRAP is able to create situations where anyone can enjoy expressing themselves creatively, and over an 80-year
period is sure to nurture a vibrant riverside culture alongside a clean Sumida River.
Outstanding features of winner’s support for arts:
This is a long-term initiative focusing on regional resources from their cultural aspects, but it organizes a wide
range of activities that are highly enjoyable./People with a big variety of standpoints take part, and withencouragement of creative proposals and independent
participation, the program supports cultural diversity.

Tsubaki-kai, named after Shiseido’s hanatsubaki (camellia) trademark, is the name given to a series of groupexhibitions at the Shiseido Gallery. The gallery dates back to 1919, and the first Tsubaki-kai exhibition marked its

whose members are changed after exhibiting for several years. The genres covered by the artists have expanded
over the years, and now include contemporary art as well as nihonga, oil painting and sculpture. To date, a total of
93 artists have been Tsubaki-kai members, with the current (seventh) group taking over in 2013.

Art House holds special exhibitions four times a year to present parts of its collection, providing substantial
opportunities for works to continue being displayed after the group show has finished.
For over 60 years, the group exhibition mechanism created around the Tsubaki-kai has made good use of thedifferent characteristics of the gallery and the Art House, contributing to the creation of new value.

Mécénat AwardChilderen’s Creative Award
DENTSU INC. (Nationwide)
Advertising Elementary SchoolChildren learn communication skills by creating advertising commercials. That is the theme of the Advertising
Elementary School, one of Dentsu’s contributions to the community.
Aiming to develop communication skills in children, Dentsu collaborated with Tokyo Gakugei University tocreate a lesson program for elementary schools. The program is designed to enable elementary school teachers to
guide their children through the process of producing a 15-second commercial, from sharing ideas about a common
theme and groupwork to bring those ideas together, to finally presenting their 15-second commercial as a skit. This
whole process of creative thinking, decision-making, and expressing ideas is focused on giving the students
experience in communicating and communication.
The program materials are produced as a package that is provided free of charge. The package is wellthought-out, including hints for teachers, a Q&A, DVDs and worksheets, together with the props needed to produce
a CM skit. Dentsu’s communication skills inform the method behind this program, and have also been used to thefull in producing the program materials. The package format has allowed the program to be adopted by a large
number of classes. In FY 2013, 7,400 children at 90 schools benefited from the program, and a total of over 20,000
children and 176 schools have been involved since the initiative commenced in 2006.
Although the program was originally designed for elementary school children, growing interest in career
education and education in communication skills has led to its use by junior high and high school students. Many
educators have commented on the potential for the program to be used as a lesson tool for discovering andcommunicating local culture and the attractiveness of their locality. Dentsu has provided comprehensive support forthe program including customization of the teaching materials and advice on use of the program given by its
creative staff. The program seems likely to continue growing to encompass a broader scope and a wider range ofages.
Outstanding features of winner’s support for arts:
The company has produced a program that contributes to the community in a unique way based on its business,making good use of business resources to teach communications skills./As a result of creating a package ofteaching materials and resources for teachers, the program has been actively adopted in schools throughout Japan.

Mécénat Award
Let’s Read in Kenya AwardNIPPON KOEI CO., LTD (the Republic of Kenya, Nyanza Provience, Nyando District)Support activity for promoting reading at
Japan-Kenya Friendship Sondu/Miriu Public Library
The inspiration from this project came from seeing a locked bookcase. Nippon Koei had been contracted tosupervise a hydropower project in the Sondu/Miriu area of Kenya, and had been involved on-site since 1997. In
2000, Mr. Sakoda, Nippon Koei’s Project Engineer, was approached by representatives of a local self-help group,
the Hera Women Group (hera means “love”), seeking support for the group’s activities. When Sakoda discoveredthat the local school kept the books and textbooks in its library under lock and key, and that the children did nothave free access to them, he suggested opening a library. He asked people in the company to help with funding forthe library and for donations of English-language books, and also persuaded the power company running thehydroelectric project to provide space for the library in one of its construction buildings. This led to the opening of
the Sondu/Miriu Public Library in 2001.
Twelve members of the Hera Women Group took on the management of the library, and support was provided by
Nippon Koei and the Library Support Group. This group was headed by Sakoda, and included Nippon Koei staff,
and individual Japanese, British, and Kenyan citizens. Books and funds collected by the group were sent to Kenya
each year, and by 2009, the library had a collection of 5,000 books. That year, there was a terrible storm that
destroyed half the books, but donations continued, and the collection has now recovered to 4,000 books. In 2004,
with the support group’s assistance, the library was able to buy land and construct a new library, moving into the
new facility. Since then, the library has been able to employ a librarian, provide additional services such as
drawing/painting classes, and run a writing contest. These have been achieved through ideas andmanagementexpertise provided, and a great deal of effort goes into improving the quality of the library.
The number of users grows each year, and has already reached 27,000. A single individual’s idea has grown,
motivating a large number of people, and is continuing to help a culture of reading take root in Kenya.
Outstanding features of winner’s support for arts:
Building direct links with local organizations to provide well-thought-out support that meets local
needs/Company and individual supporters have collaborated to work with and provide ongoing support for a localgroup, contributing to enhanced appreciation of literacy and book-reading.

Bingata Mensore Award
Bank of The Ryukyus, Limited. (Okinawa)
Bingata promotion and Development of the Next Generation activities
by “Ryugin Bingata Design Contest "Beautiful multicolor dyed patterns make Bingata textiles one of the most attractive of Okinawa’s traditional
crafts. Based on Asian dyeing techniques learned in the 14th-15th century, and influenced by Kyo-Yuzen dyeing
from Kyoto, Bingata developed along with the prosperity of the Ryukyu dynasty. More recently, however, thenumber of Bingata artists declined, and fewer young people were willing to take up the craft.
In 1992, to mark its 45th anniversary and the 20th anniversary of Okinawa’s reversion to Japan, the Bank of The
Ryukyus inaugurated a Bingata Design Contest. Before then, the bank had depicted Bingata in its calendars formany years, but the adoption of a contest format had the dual effect of training young artists and encouraging
attempts to push Bingata design into new areas.
The contest was open to all entries using the Bingata technique,regardless of whether the artist was a professional or an amateur. In 2013,in addition to its General Division, the contest gained a Future Division
for students up to the age of 20, broadening its scope to cover a greater
range of ages. All entries are exhibited at the Okinawa Prefectural
Museum & Art Museum, and Bingata workshops are held while theexhibition is in progress. Each year, the bank purchases the winning andshortlisted entries, and in addition to putting on an exhibition that tours
its main branches, makes wide-ranging use of images of the textiles on its
calendars and on items like passbooks and cash cards that customers usedevery day. Works are also exhibited on display panels and the like insidebank branches, including a dramatic display wall at the head branchcovered with Bingata works, which are changed every few years.
23rd Bingata Design Contest / General Division: Award "by the wind" / Chie Tengan

The bank has also made some of these Bingata works and designs available for the use of other businesses in
Okinawa, offering 110 prizewinning items from the period up to 2009. The first example was the much-anticipatedkariyushi wear incorporating motifs from prizewinning works. In addition to supporting the continuance oftraditional techniques, the program will continue to open new doors and provide vivid new opportunities for
Bingata.

Award Granted by the Commissioner for Cultural Affairs
Toyota Motor corporation (Nationwide)
Toyota Youth Orchestra CampThe Toyota Youth Orchestra Camp (TYOC) is a four-day residential program bringing young people with anaffinity for music together from around Japan to receive instruction from professionals. This program commenced
in 1980 as a combined initiative by Toyota Motor Corporation and the Federation of Japan Amateur Orchestras,
inspired by the keenness of young people to share more and spend more time with their friends nationwide.
The first camp was in 1985, and it has been held annually ever since. The initial participants were members ofJapanese junior or youth orchestras, and the scope has been extended to bring in ordinary members of the public
and members of junior orchestras in other Asian countries. In 2013, a total of 160 people with an age range of
13-23 attended the 30th camp. The TYOC is structured as a two-year program, so that in the second year people
come back together with members they had met the previous year, receiving instruction from top-level professionalmusicians each day from morning till night as they prepare to perform a specific piece. The camp culminates with apublic performance at Suntory Hall in Tokyo on the final day, attracting attendees of previous camps who gather toencourage the young musicians.
One of the distinctive characteristics of TYOC is the self-managed style adopted. This approach originates in the
success of the young people speaking out and sharing their own ideas at the very first camp. Consequently, the twocamps that each member attends provide experience in tuning in to each others’ minds as well as in tuning up theirinstruments and technical skills. Each returns home from TYOC with a promise to pass on the skills andmanagement expertise that they take away from the camp. As a result, the valuable experience that would be
difficult to obtain elsewhere gains broad application at orchestras in many different locations.
To date, over 5,000 people have taken part in the Toyota Youth Orchestra Camp, and even the youngest membersof the earliest camps are already in their forties, becoming professional musicians or key members of local
orchestras in their own right. The seeds sown at TYOC have grown up around Japan and around Asia, and are still
gaining strength as they continue to growOutstanding features of winner’s support for arts:
By working with young people from all over Japan, the program provides multifaceted training form new
generations of musicians who will go on to support musical culture in their own regions./By collaborating with an
external entity, the program is supporting amateur orchestras in Japan and other Asian countries, and constructing acontinuous, wide-reaching network.
