Fukuoka Castle is one of Fukuoka’s major historical spots. While its turrets have been reconstructed and restored, it’s stone walls are original. Art In Fukuoka Castle 2020 coincides with Fukuoka Castle Sakura Festival, which is enjoyed by citizens and visitors from around Japan and overseas. This year’s Art In Fukuoka Castle features Yinka Shonibare CBE’s work, “Woman Shooting Cherry Blossoms,” which was recently acquired by the Fukuoka Art Museum.
