Takedao Art Event 2012 - September 8th 14:00 - 23:00‏‏

INTRO :

To celebrate the end of summer, I am organizing this yearly art event in an abandoned train tunnel, now used as a hiking path, a pleasant ten minutes walk from Takedao station, Hyogo prefecture. Come and join us for a full day of performances, camping, bonfire, portable fireworks, barbecue and swimming!


HOW TO GET THERE :

Takedao station is a few stations from JR Takarazuka. It is on a local line, so if you come from JR Osaka, you may want to transfer to the local line at Takarazuka, which is the closest station on the express. Please use HYPERDIA to navigate yourself.

And from Takedao station, turn left when you get out of the station and follow arrow signs I will post. On the way, there will be one little shop next to the first bridge, where you can get beer and snacks, as well as (a little further) a really cool river side restaurant that you might want to check out on your way in or out... Where the road turns left, there will be a bridge. Take that bridge and continue walking along the river. The event is held in the first tunnel.


WHAT TO BRING :

Food and snacks to share would be welcome. If you're planning camping, the gear that goes with it, and for those who would like to do barbecue, a dose of meat would be good. And as Takedao is in the nature, please consider bringing some mosquito repellent.
