Hello from Osaka

Thank you for the opportunity to get involved to the festival. We wish the movement of international homeless festival could spread wider across the borders. -about Koe to Kotoba to Kokoro noHeya (the Room of Voices Words and Hearts=Cocoroom)Non Profit Organization Cocoroom have made efforts to introduce social issues to the public and we have specialized our activities in art. In our headquarters Cocoroom located in Shin-Sekai region, Osaka in western Japan, we have unique guests everyday such as artists, homeless people, handicapped people, people Not in Employment, Education or Training, and people who have difficulty to be socialized. Cocoroom has been the place we can talk face by face, and that have created a lot of interesting art projects under the question “How can we become socially recognized?” Each of those movements are small, however, we hope it would give each person a warm embrace of heart to achieve wisdom of life.

Charmian…

What can I say? she is adorable, I’ve known her for four years now and she always brings you good feelings. I thing there is so much we could learn from people like her… but well, let’s not get in the middle of it. Last Wednesday we talked about art, dreams and experiences, PLEASE CLICK HERE to listen to a brief interview with Charmian, hope you enjoy it.
