This unique cultural exhibition features four artists who have reached the pinnacle of their respective fields, each taking up their brush and expressing their individual passions through calligraphy. Led by calligraphy master Yoshikawa Juichi, the calligraphy of these four artists, spanning genres, comes together under the shared prayer of "uniting the world through the connections between culture and donations."

■ONE WORLD ~Uniting the World through Culture and Donations~

The ONE WORLD Project is a cultural heritage and social contribution project run by the Kronos Conservation Foundation. Based on the themes of "preserving historical buildings," "harmony," and "connections of support," we promote traditional Japanese culture globally, transcending borders and genres, while also expanding education and promoting the culture of giving.

Culture is not valuable because everyone knows it. It exists because of the people who have continued to preserve it. "Protect," "Connect," and "Pass on"—these three principles are the foundation of ONE WORLD.

■"OEN"—ONE WORLD Travels the World

"OEN" means connections that travel. Connections transcend borders and time. It is a world where connections between people travel across the globe, connected by connections of culture and donations. ONE WORLD is also OEN WORLD.

Not only does it connect the horizontal axis (people living in the present), but it also connects the vertical axis (past, present, and future). People living in the past, present, and future become one through the connections of connections. That is the worldview envisioned by ONE WORLD.

■How Donations Work

Donations are the embodiment of feelings. Japan has been known globally as a country where a culture of giving has struggled to take root. That's why it's so meaningful to start here. Through activities to learn about, protect, and connect culture, the circle of donations will naturally expand. That's what ONE WORLD aims to achieve.

In cooperation with the Kronos Conservation Foundation, a portion of the proceeds from ONE WORLD's efforts will be donated to disaster relief efforts on the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture (donations to the Ishikawa Prefecture Branch of the Japanese Red Cross Society and the Ishikawa Prefecture Community Chest) and for the preservation of cultural heritage.

■The Journey of ONE WORLD: A Story of Passing the Baton

The ONE WORLD project has been carried out at Japan's most iconic historical and cultural sites, passing on the "cultural baton." Now, that baton is about to extend beyond Japan and become a World Heritage Site.

[Passing the Baton to the Future]

And in the future, it will be passed on to Nezu Shrine (a Nationally Designated Important Cultural Property), Yasuda Auditorium at the University of Tokyo, and on to World Heritage sites like Sagrada Familia (Spain), Niagara Falls (Canada and the United States), and the Pyramids of Giza (Egypt).

The cultural baton, which began at Tsukiji Honganji Temple in July 2024, will travel to Osaka, Tokyo, and Haneda, before finally reaching the world. In these iconic cultural and historical locations, a new chapter will be written in the story of cultural preservation originating in Japan.

■Collaboration with Educational and Public Institutions

The University of Tokyo—In collaboration with Japan's top academic institutions, we are promoting the integration of cultural preservation and education. We plan to develop this project in historic academic spaces, including Yasuda Auditorium, with the aim of creating new value at the intersection of academia, culture, and the arts.

The story of culture begins here and now. Dreaming of the day when the world will become one.

[:en]GACKT Makes Surprise Appearance at Graduation Ceremony, Singing Passionately at High School Closing This Month

At the graduation ceremony held at Mitsui Chuo High School in Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, which is closing this March, singer GACKT made a surprise appearance and delivered a passionate message: "Dreams aren't something you see. They're something you make come true."

Founded 63 years ago, the school, run by a consortium of three cities and one town, including Kurume City, has graduated over 9,000 students.

However, with a decline in applicants, enrollment continued to fall below capacity, and the school suspended recruitment in 2012.

On the 1st, a graduation ceremony and closing ceremony for 85 third-year students were held, watched by parents, school and community officials, and alumni.

At the ceremony, Principal Akira Oyama delivered farewell words, saying, "Even though the school is no longer here, the irreplaceable time you spent with your friends and the memories you made together will remain in your hearts forever."

A female student representative spoke of her love for her alma mater and her determination for the future, saying, "We will each move forward into our own future. From tomorrow, our voices will no longer echo in this school building. It will no longer exist as a place of learning, but the days we studied, laughed, and supported each other at our alma mater are memories of our youth. The spirit of our school will live on forever in the hearts of all graduates, including us."

GACKT's participation in the ceremony was completely unknown to the students and other attendees.

At the closing ceremony, which took place following the graduation ceremony, the emcee introduced the event by saying, "Today, Principal Oyama has called some friends over for you all," and GACKT made a surprise appearance from the entrance to the gymnasium.

The venue was instantly filled with cheers.

As soon as GACKT began to sing, the venue fell silent, and only GACKT's voice echoed throughout the venue.

GACKT chose his own song "Like a Flower Blooming in the Field" as his message for this occasion.

The lyrics include the following passage: "We each begin our journey with our own memories in our hearts. We won't give up until we reach the place of our dreams. We may still be nameless flowers, but we want to bloom strong and never give up."

After finishing the song, GACKT offered the following encouragement to the graduates:
"Dreams aren't something you see. Dreams are something you make come true. And making your dreams come true means having a strong will. I look forward to the future of everyone here. Congratulations on your graduation."

GACKT explained the reason for his visit to the school: "During a meeting to discuss the Fukuoka leg of his concert tour, I heard that Mitsui Chuo High School would be closing, and that this year would be its last graduation ceremony. I wanted to do whatever I could to add a touch of elegance to the memories of the graduating students and teachers. So, with the help of the principal and the support of many local people behind the scenes, this graduation concert was made possible."

[:it]GACKT fa un'apparizione a sorpresa alla cerimonia di diploma, cantando con passione alla chiusura della scuola superiore questo mese

Alla cerimonia di diploma tenutasi alla Mitsui Chuo High School di Kurume City, nella prefettura di Fukuoka, che chiuderà a marzo, il cantante GACKT ha fatto un'apparizione a sorpresa e ha pronunciato un messaggio appassionato: "I sogni non sono qualcosa che vedi. Sono qualcosa che fai diventare realtà".

Fondata 63 anni fa, la scuola, gestita da un consorzio di tre città e una cittadina, tra cui Kurume City, ha diplomato oltre 9.000 studenti.

Tuttavia, a causa del calo delle domande, le iscrizioni hanno continuato a scendere al di sotto della capacità e la scuola ha sospeso le iscrizioni nel 2012.

Il 1° gennaio si sono tenute una cerimonia di diploma e una cerimonia di chiusura per 85 studenti del terzo anno, alla presenza di genitori, funzionari scolastici e della comunità ed ex studenti.

Durante la cerimonia, il preside Akira Oyama ha pronunciato le sue parole di addio, dicendo: "Anche se la scuola non c'è più, il tempo insostituibile che avete trascorso con i vostri amici e i ricordi che avete creato insieme rimarranno per sempre nei vostri cuori".

Una rappresentante degli studenti ha parlato del suo amore per la sua alma mater e della sua determinazione per il futuro, affermando: "Ognuno di noi andrà avanti verso il proprio futuro. Da domani, le nostre voci non echeggeranno più in questo edificio scolastico. Non esisterà più come luogo di apprendimento, ma i giorni in cui abbiamo studiato, riso e ci siamo sostenuti a vicenda nella nostra alma mater sono ricordi della nostra giovinezza. Lo spirito della nostra scuola vivrà per sempre nei cuori di tutti i diplomati, noi compresi".

La partecipazione di GACKT alla cerimonia era completamente sconosciuta agli studenti e agli altri partecipanti.

Alla cerimonia di chiusura, che si è svolta dopo la cerimonia di diploma, il presentatore ha introdotto l'evento dicendo: "Oggi, il preside Oyama ha chiamato alcuni amici per tutti voi", e GACKT ha fatto un'apparizione a sorpresa dall'ingresso della palestra.

Il locale si è riempito immediatamente di applausi.

Non appena GACKT ha iniziato a cantare, il silenzio è calato e solo la voce di GACKT ha echeggiato in tutto il locale.

GACKT ha scelto la sua canzone "Like a Flower Blooming in the Field" come messaggio per l'occasione.

Il testo include il seguente passaggio: "Ognuno di noi inizia il proprio viaggio con i propri ricordi nel cuore. Non ci arrenderemo finché non raggiungeremo il luogo dei nostri sogni. Potremmo ancora essere fiori senza nome, ma vogliamo sbocciare forti e non arrenderci mai."

Dopo aver terminato la canzone, GACKT ha offerto il seguente incoraggiamento ai diplomati:
"I sogni non sono qualcosa che vedi. I sogni sono qualcosa che realizzi. E realizzare i tuoi sogni significa avere una forte volontà. Non vedo l'ora di vedere il futuro di tutti qui. Congratulazioni per la vostra diploma."

GACKT ha spiegato il motivo della sua visita alla scuola: "Durante un incontro per discutere della tappa di Fukuoka del suo tour di concerti, ho sentito che la Mitsui Chuo High School avrebbe chiuso e che quest'anno si sarebbe tenuta la sua ultima cerimonia di diploma. Volevo fare tutto il possibile per aggiungere un tocco di eleganza ai ricordi degli studenti e degli insegnanti diplomati. Così, con l'aiuto del preside e il supporto di molte persone del posto dietro le quinte, questo concerto di diploma è stato reso possibile."
