TAB’s Mission

  • TAB is free for all, bilingual, independent, neutral, and non-profit.
  • TAB promotes inter-cultural dialogue around art and design by presenting Tokyo's events to an audiences in Japan and abroad.
  • TAB encourages everyone, even people who usually don't go see art, to discover art and design.

Since its launch in October 2004, Tokyo Art Beat has given a voice to hundreds of venues and artists who had little or no coverage or presence in traditional media or on the web. We've published information about more than 10,000 events, creating an impressive record of art in Tokyo.
