Zodiac Sheep Exhibition
Japanese name:えとの「ひつじ」展
📅 Fri, Nov 27, 2026 - Mon, Jan 11, 2027
About this event
This is a regular seasonal exhibition showcasing works depicting the "Sheep (Hitsuji)", the zodiac animal of 2027. Because sheep live peacefully in herds, the sheep year is considered auspicious, symbolizing "family prosperity", "peace", and "expanding interpersonal connections". Works symbolizing a peaceful, compassionate year filled with enriching human relationships will be on display. A diverse array of "sheep" artworks will be presented across various genres, including three-dimensional works like ceramics, glass, papier-mache, and Echizen bamboo dolls, as well as framed works featuring calligraphy, paintings, and illustrations. At the venue, a raffle campaign will also be held where visitors can win lovely works by the exhibiting artists. Enjoy the diverse world of "sheep" expressed through rich materials and techniques, such as pottery, glassware, cloisonne enamel, calligraphy art, plant dyeing, illustration, stone clay, felt, Echizen bamboo craft, papier-mache, painting, Kutani ware, kagami mochi, and New Year decorations.
