In the process, the artists interact with the children and conduct workshops for them.
The school was established in response to the poor education system in the region.
It was suggested to use the white walls of the school as a canvas.
One of the artists who participated in the festival three years in row was Yusuke Asai.
Asai also encouraged the children to make hand-print on the wall as a sign of their wish for future.
