“Shikasu” is a volunteer group of Kyoto Seika University students who are working to expand opportunities for local children and the elderly to come into contact with art, mainly by holding art workshops at children’s centers and day service centers in Sakyo-ku, Kyoto City.

On the day of the event, it was very popular with everyone from children to the elderly, and from the very beginning, people who wanted to make reservations came one after another.

Participants can choose their favorite from Deformed Touch, Real Touch, and Anime/Manga Touch.


It takes about 40 minutes for each caricature to be created carefully and thoughtfully one by one, but we were careful to create a fun atmosphere while communicating with the participants so as to bring out smiles on their faces.

It was very impressive to see the participants happily receiving the completed caricature with a smile.

【Activities】Environmental protection of Fushimi Fukakusa and Higashitakase River and Jizo Bon Project

We would like to introduce the efforts of the “Ryukoku University-Higashitakase River Environmental Protection and Jizo Bon Project Team” adopted this year.
The Ryukoku University’s Higashi-Takase River Environmental Protection and Jizo Bon Project Team is planning and implementing a Jizo Bon in Fushimi Ward in Fushimi Ward that allows everyone from children to the elderly to actively participate in the development of environmental protection through cleanup activities on the Higashi-Takase River together with local organizations, neighborhood associations, neighborhood associations, and students of Fushimi Technical High School.
We have received an activity report on this year’s Jizo Basin, so please take a look.

“This year’s bamboo lanterns are handmade by students, high school students, and local residents [Friday, July 14]”

The last year of Kyoto Municipal Fushimi Technical High School, which has been working on environmental issues in the Higashi-Takase River for a long time, our students, and local residents gathered to make bamboo lanterns by hand for this year’s Jizo Bon Festival. We learned from local Mr./Ms., and together with high school and university students, we were able to make 40 pieces in one and a half hours.

Bamboo lanterns are made in collaboration with high school students, university students, and local residents, and the results of collaborative work are lit up on the Higashitakase River at night on the Jizo Basin. Now, the Jizo Bon in Kawakubo Town seems to have become firmly established as a “bamboo lantern” on the Higashi-Takase River.

“Jizo Bon in Kawakubo Town [Saturday, August 19th] “

This year’s bamboo lanterns are handmade in collaboration with students, high school students, and local residents. When the scraps were combined to draw the words “Kawakubo Town”, everyone in the area was delighted with this surprise, Mr./Ms. the community.

The popular fireworks in the evening, the watermelon hollowed-out floop punch, and of course, the bamboo lanterns from the Higashi-Takase River have now become the main event of the Kawakubo-cho Jizo Bon and many people enjoyed.


When the children’s favorite anime song plays, everyone starts singing. Mr./Ms. Tozaki, who played the story, received a big round of applause from everyone. We felt a sense of accomplishment as the venue came together through our project.

Looking Back on the 2017 Kyoto Student Festival

Looking back on the 15th Kyoto Student Festival 2017

Outline of the event

■The 15th Kyoto Student Festival Theme


■ Activity Goals

This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Kyoto Student Festival, which began in 2003. This year, in order to create a festival that is on a par with Kyoto’s three major festivals, we have been working on activities that approach various cultures under the theme of “Creating a New Culture, ‘Kyoto Student Culture.'”

The 15th Kyoto Student Festival

For one year, the 15th Kyoto Student Festival has been working on the activities of “rediscovering Kyoto culture and international culture,” “fusing student character and culture,” and “widely disseminating the charm of Kyoto student culture.” In particular, this year’s event was an unprecedentedly rich year for the Kyoto Student Festival, as we were able to actively engage in activities in collaboration with the Kyoto Cultural Power Project, which is developed by Kyoto Prefecture and Kyoto City, where we learned about culture from cultural figures from Kyoto who are active in the world on the 15th of every month and arranged them from the perspective of students. In this way, we were able to create a unique student culture for the festival while increasing the number of partners, and as a result, we were able to get closer to the “Four Great Festivals of Kyoto,” which are on a par with the three major festivals in Kyoto.

♦ Commemorative Projects

・June 4, 2017 [15th Anniversary Festa in. Ukyo feat. Subway Tozai Line 20th Anniversary]

♦ Community Exchange Activities

  • Cleanup activities aimed at beautifying the area (about once a month) Kyoto Okazaki, Anning, Umeya, Sanjo area, Kamogawa

Student Support

 

Student Growth Programs

The University Consortium Kyoto supports students’ daily activities based on the principle of “creating their own initiative,” and hopes that “interaction” and “experience” with a wide variety of people in contact through independent activities will lead to new “awareness” and “learning” that will lead to student growth.
Specifically, we have adopted the PDCA cycle method, which treats student activities as a single project, and focuses on achieving results by working toward a single goal for each department. With the goal of smooth execution of activities, improvement of projects, and continuous development of businesses, we are working to create a system that promotes the growth of students by promoting the following support methods.

This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Kyoto Student Festival. I have been working hard every day under the theme of “Creating a ‘Kyoto Student Culture'”. On Sunday, October 8th, students who are active in various fields such as fashion, music, and food gathered here in Kyoto to create a festival unique to them, and the “trajectory” of the Kyoto Student Festival over the past 15 years.
In addition to the overwhelming odori “Kyo Flame Sodefure!”, music and fashion contests, fair-day projects where you can enjoy Kyoto’s food culture, and children’s projects that even small children can enjoy.
The Foundation, which plays a role in the Kyoto Student Festival Organizing Committee, in addition to providing support for the festival, sees the year-long activities as opportunities for student growth and develops a support system throughout the year. In particular, this year was also the 15th anniversary of the event, and it was a pre-large-scale activity that involved many commemorative projects, including the anniversary festival. In the visitor survey, it was found that these year-round efforts did not directly attract customers. However, I feel that the one-year activity experience has led to the students’ confidence and learning. As we mark the end of this milestone and the 16th anniversary, we will continue to assess the capabilities and potential of the executive committee (especially the students who serve as executive staff) and develop a system to support the executive committee so that it can continue to be the 20th and 30th anniversaries. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to everyone who came to the event and to all those who supported us in various ways in holding this project.
