The small area of Akihabara, with less than a radius of 500 m, gathers a variety of cultures, including home appliances, anime, cartoons, games, hobbies, and concept cafes. Akihabara attracts about 260,000 Japanese and 160,000 foreign tourists a day. Akihabara's universal value is accepting various values and cultures as well as having the flexibility to nurture them and the energy to create unique things from them. If we define the value of art as "to create new values and to increase the level of sensitivity," it is no exaggeration to say that the Akihabara area itself is a work of art. As a central base of the ART work, "Akihabara" is a place with the context of art and continues transmitting new values by blending with various cultures.

Creative Hub 131 was created as a facility with over a half year of handmade renovation of an old building at Nihonbashi Odemmacho where this area continued its history since the early Edo Period.

In order to gain a more maximized flexibility (freedom), each organization in the Creative Hub 131 is managed independently and takes it's own individual responsibilities and risks. The project was begun in fall 2010, and launched in the summer of 2011. It is for where we are not able to make or create otherwise at an ordinary environment; for people to spend time together and being connected as a hub, and for challenging us to make a new means of working and for exhibiting these attempts and efforts. This place now functions as a center for experiments and practices.

The gallery opened in 2019 in a corner of the DDD HOTEL in Nihonbashi Bakurocho, Tokyo.
In a distinctive space that was once a multi-story parking garage, we have formed a program that crosses cultures and values with a focus on contemporary art. The gallery introduces a wide range of domestic and international artists.
Taku Sato, who has worked as a gallery director and art coordinator for many years, is the director of Parcel, and Sakie Takasu, who is a member of the art collective Side Core and plays an important role as an exhibition planner, is the program director.
Parcel aims to combine the characteristics of a commercial gallery, a project space, and an artist-run space, while sending out a multifaceted message to the times.

In 2018, a newly founded art gallery fused with an accounting office in Bakurocho, Tokyo to form the Kiyoyuki Kuwabara Accounting Gallery (KKAG).

The word “Accounting” is included in the name of the gallery as it is a word that not only means “to account” but also “to explain”. For business owners, it is important for them to objectively “explain” using numbers so that investors would “understand” how their business plan adds value to their company. Similarly, artists need to increase the value of their work by drawing an “understanding” from observers and buyers by objectively “explaining” to them the value and context of their work. This process of “explaining” and “understanding” is known as “dialogue”. This gallery provides a space for artists and related parties (stakeholders) to engage in earnest “dialogue”, which we hope will become an art incubator that creates new value.

San-Ai Gallery was established in 2005 in Nihonbashi Suitengu, before moving to Nihonbashi Bakurocho in 2018. We showcase work centering on contemporary art and contemporary craft.
We exhibit a wide range of genres including Nihonga, oil painting, acrylic, prints, sculpture, installation, and crafts, in addition to and accessories, three-dimensional works such as metal, ceramics, glass, and lacquer. We introduce the work of contemporary artists full of originality. Group exhibitions include genre-transcending work such as ‘Neko Hiyori Exhibition’, ‘Ichigo Festival’, "Monochrome Exhibition’, etc.

NICA, which officially opened on January 16, 2015, is an experimental laboratory for global dissemination, practicing the emergence of art and creativity from the heart of Tokyo. Its main members are Keijiro Niino (director), Tomohiro Okada (planning committee member), and Shoko Kato (planning committee member). The small art center, which opened in the basement of Nihonbashi-Odenmacho, once the commercial center of Edo, aims to be a space that embodies art in a stimulating yet gentle way, as an artistic device for evolving the times and society for the creative city of Tokyo. NICA has hosted Shoko Kato's "Dialogues International Duo Exhibition" four times. Since 2013, it has been used as a venue for the AAN-sponsored "Geijutsu Eigo Juku" (Art English School).
