Minami Ward Reading Activities Promotion Project

About Minami Ward Reading Activity Promotion Project
On April 1, 2014, "the regulations about promotion of reading activity of Yokohama citizen" were enforced.
In Yokohama-shi, we devised "Yokohama citizen book-reading activity promotion plan" based on these regulations.
In the plan, ward offices, libraries, and schools cooperate to formulate goals for reading activities according to the regional characteristics of the ward, collaborate with local organizations and private businesses, and promote reading activities throughout the region. It is supposed to be. Based on this plan, Minami Ward has formulated the "Minami Ward People's Reading Activity Promotion Goals" and conducts various businesses to promote reading activities.

Cello and reading "Blue Bird" that both adults and children can enjoy [finished]
Cello and Reading "Blue Bird"
Please enjoy Maeterlinck's masterpiece "Blue Bird" with Ichiro Hasebe's cello performance and Rieko Takano's reading.
"Blue Bird" is a play written for the play, and on the day before Christmas, my brother Chiru and my sister Michiru go to look for a blue bird. Where is happiness? What is happiness? There are a lot of words that make you think of it.
It is a wonderful story that resonates with adults who have read it in the past and children who know it for the first time.
