Following Phase 1, the “Video Art Festival,” held at the Matsumoto City Museum from February to March of this year, Phase 2 returns to the festival’s roots as a “city-wide walking tour.” This time, venues have been expanded to three areas: “Castle Town,” “Asama Onsen,” and “West (Historic Village).”


The streets and alleys connecting the venues also serve as exhibition spaces in their own right. We invite you to take a stroll and explore the places where Matsumoto’s “famous architecture” meets art.
