Did you know that Fukuoka prefecture is a generator for many Manga artists? This special exhibit is filled with vast amount of content such as award winning submissions from Kitakyushu Manga museum's “Kitakyushu International Manga Competition" and Manga Contents Promote Organization's "MCPO AWARD," both contests are Fukuoka's biggest international manga contests and there will also be introductions to Manga artists who have connections to Fukuoka and associated events.
You gotta take some photos at the photo spot, complimentary from Kurate Gakuen a cosplay photo shoot location that uses a closed down school! Definitely come to the exhibit to take some cool photos!

During the exhibition not only there will be many events from asianbeat and from supporting orgainizartions. For event schedules and details, we will update this page for new information. Please stop by and enjoy the exhibition♪
