SEIJI TOGO MEMORIAL SOMPO JAPAN NIPPONKOA MUSEUM OF ART has been exhibiting Japanese and foreign artworks for over a quarter of a century since opening its doors in July 1976.
The idea to open an art museum blossomed from The Yasuda Fire & Marine Insurance Co., Ltd., one of the forerunner companies of the present Sompo Japan Nipponkoa Insurance Inc. As part of its contribution to cultural improvement, Yasuda Fire aspired to provide a venue for enjoying artworks. Upon learning of this idea, Seiji Togo, who was closely associated with the company, offered to donate his collection. As the name of the original museum “SEIJI TOGO ART MUSEUM” suggests, the museum was initially intended to display mainly the works of this noted artist.

As a westerner with only a basic working knowledge of Japanese, I thought it might be fun to take in the bargain Saturday evening performances for 500 Yen. I'm glad I went, because rakugo is something that most tourists never get the chance to see, and this theatre has a great reputation. Not particularly large, I was lucky to get a ticket, despite getting in line a bit after nine; the floor seating filled and I had to sit on a pillow on the side gallery on the tatami. A little uncomfortable, but not too bad. A very funny performance, even though I had difficulty following parts of it. A very varied crowd, but all locals apart from myself. A good show for those who want to experience the cultural immersion, but don't go in expecting anyone to speak English. It would be most appreciated by those with some degree of Japanese fluency.
