On September 1 Artist Cafe Fukuoka, a facility to support the creative activities and start-ups of artists based in Fukuoka opened. The facility will provide a space for artists to create artworks and consult on business startups, encouraging them to become active on the global stage. The facility is located in the former Maizuru Junior High School building adjacent to the ruins of Fukuoka Castle. It is equipped with a studio, gallery, and community space that can also be used as a co-working space. Artists can consult about starting a business, hold social gatherings, and create and sell their artwork. This is the first time that Fukuoka City has established such a place to support artists. The “cafe” serving beverages will open only on weekends from the middle of the month and then on other days from November.
