In snowy regions like Misawa City, winter can quickly turn the beautiful green, lush landscapes to desolate greys and whites.

The season doesn’t have to be all gloom, however. Towada Art Center is bringing a little color with its annual Towada Illumination featuring over 300,000 LED lights and cool artwork you won’t want to miss.

The snowy backdrop and vivid blue lights make a perfect setting to enjoy art by world-renowned Japanese pop artist Yayoi Kusama and others like ingess idee and Erwing Wurm.

You can enjoy the fantastic illumination until February 14 for free of charge.
