MoN Takanawa Opening Commemorative Special Exhibition "Round and Round Exhibition: The Story of Humanity Evolving"
On Saturday, March 28, 2026, "MoN Takanawa: The Museum of Narratives" (hereinafter referred to as "MoN Takanawa)" will be opened at TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY (operated by the JR East Foundation for Cultural Creation). As a place to connect cultures 100 years into the future, the opening of this facility, which aims to create diverse narratives from the experiences of each visitor, will be marked by the special exhibition "The Round and Round Exhibition: The Story of Evolving Humanity".
The keyword that symbolizes the activities that MoN Takanawa will create in the future is "round and round".
New cultures are born as different fields mix with people, between people, between the past and the future. The movement overlaps in the shape of a spiral that goes round and round. This spiral is the very idea of this facility, which is also reflected in the architecture and logo of MoN Takanawa.
The special exhibition "Guruguru Exhibition" to commemorate the opening of the museum is the first exhibition to deliver this idea as an experience. With the theme of "Guruguru", a universal form that has supported the evolution of mankind, we will develop a variety of "Guruguru" (circles, repetitions, and spirals) that abound in the world, such as the cycle of nature, the renewal of cities, and the circulation of human bodies and thoughts.
It is an intellectual entertainment where you can explore the diverse worlds such as art, society, technology, and traditional culture with an audio guide, and encounter new ways of seeing the world and living in the world. This exhibition is the starting point of MoN Takanawa's activities and a theme exhibition that symbolizes the future of MoN Takanawa.
