NPO The Private Art School Society to Encourage International Exchange of Children's Art
(The PASS)

The exhibition was first held in 1978 when art schools from Kyoto, Osaka, and Shiga gathered for international exchange through children's art, and sent children's art to Asian and African countries. The PASS has been promoting the message “Children's art; letters that require no words.” For many years, through children's art exchange, the PASS has nurtured mutual understanding and friendship, while engaging in activities to become the cornerstone of peace for the next generation, and contributing to art education.
