The nonprofit Koganecho Area Management Center has announced Koganecho Bazaar + Kamiooka Bazaar 2026, an art festival set across the Koganecho and Kamiooka areas. The 2026 edition carries the theme “Intersecting Us - A town connected by art,” pointing to a program built around links between artists, neighborhoods and everyday urban life.
The announcement presents the festival as a city-area project rather than a single-venue exhibition. By using the streets and spaces of both Koganecho and Kamiooka as its stage, the event is positioned to bring art into the flow of daily life and create new points of contact between residents and visitors.
The trimmed release also names several artists connected to the program, including Bang Sanghwan, Boingzilla & Boingzilla, Chen Yenwei, Choi Wongyu and Kim Gaeun. While the full lineup and project details were not included in the excerpt, the artist list suggests a broad, multi-artist contemporary art program.
Koganecho Bazaar + Kamiooka Bazaar 2026 is being framed as an effort to connect communities through art across two local areas. More information on venues, schedule and individual works is likely to follow as the festival approaches.
