Reaching Your Hiroshima Workshop
Hiroshima is well connected for both domestic and international visitors. The main railway hub is Hiroshima Station, a key stop on the Sanyo Shinkansen line, offering high-speed rail connections from major cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Fukuoka. Local JR lines and the Astramline also serve the city effectively, providing access to various districts.
For those arriving by air, Hiroshima Airport (HIJ) has connections to several Japanese cities and some international destinations. Bus services operate frequently between the airport and Hiroshima Station. Within the city, Hiroshima's tram network, known as Hiroden, is an efficient way to travel, covering many popular areas. Main roads such as National Route 2 run through the city, facilitating travel by car or coach. Parking facilities are available in central areas, though may be limited depending on the venue.
Local culture
Hiroshima's Urban Art Scene
Hiroshima, while deeply reverent of its past, also possesses a contemporary artistic pulse. You will not find widespread legal graffiti walls in the same way as some Western cities, and public art often manifests in carefully curated installations and sculptures, particularly in areas like the Peace Memorial Park and along the Ota River. The city's focus on reconstruction and peace has historically guided its public spaces.
However, there is an evolving appreciation for diverse art forms. Galleries and smaller independent art spaces exist, showcasing local and national talent. Our workshops operate within this context, providing a controlled and legal environment for exploring graffiti and street art techniques. This allows participants to engage with a modern art form while respecting Hiroshima's unique urban landscape and cultural sensitivities. The workshop itself becomes a creative intervention, a temporary splash of colour and expression.
