“Celebrate Tomodachi Friendship!” which welcomes the Kyoto city delegation and citizen’s friendship team members. Tomodachi means friends in Japanese.

Kyoto’s famous ceramic artist Imai-san will invite visitors to create animals out of clay together.

The Friendship Ceremony will be held when Miss Kyoto, the Japanese friendship doll, originally arrived at the Museum in 1927, welcomes Mary-san, an American friendship doll living in Kyoto who is coming to visit.

These two dolls are from the famous Friendship Doll Exchange, a project from the 1920s, in response to the tensions that developed between the two cultures as a result of the Immigration Act of 1924.
