The Fukuoka DIY Renovation Week is returning for the fourth time. Organized by the NPO Fukuoka Building Stock Research Group, the event aims to promote the value of DIY work and the satisfaction that comes with refurbishing properties that have aged or fallen into disrepair. Various events are scheduled to take place at locations throughout Fukuoka to revitalize local regions. There will also be tours of interesting properties that will take place all around the prefecture. Some of the highlights to keep an eye out for include the startup event in Kumamoto which will discuss conservation efforts in the city, as well as a symposium in Kurume which will feature special lectures from leading academics. Check the website for a full list of the events.
