▶︎Community Art Space Yubido (optional rental space *please inquire)

“Yubido” is a community art space reutilizing an 80-year-old frame shop located in the heart of the Jimbocho area of Tokyo, well-known as a used bookstore district.
During the renovation process led by the artist Masato Nakamura, volunteers and artists came together to restore the space along with hundreds of frames. Today, Yubido serves as a local arts hub with a café and gallery space, and still remains active as a frame shop. You can even meet their very own mascot, the Akita dog Nono-chan!
A section of Yubido is available for rent for the purpose of exhibitions or other events. Please see below for details:
