Our executive director, Soka Horii, appeared as a guest speaker at Adachi 100-Person Meeting Vol. 2.

The event, which exists so that people can connect loosely through hearing from others working in the area, drew around thirty people, mostly Adachi residents. Horii spoke about his life from childhood through to founding TEIGEN JP, organized around one question: why have I been acting at all?

The session ended with open discussion, and a frank conversation across generations.
