The Invisible Dog (New York City) is thrilled to partner with Iegekijyo to present Senju Yorimichi Kissa (Senju Detour Cafe) in conjunction with NAFAS Tokyo Festival.
NAFAS and Senju’s various venues to present invite you for a walk through Senju, our neighborhood in Tokyo’s Adachi City, where small shops, quiet alleys, and creative spaces invite you to slow down and explore. Joining our neighbors for an evening of food, art, and chance encounters, we’ll follow the lights from a curry restaurant to a bookstore, from a photography gallery to a house that becomes a theater. Along the way, enjoy Taiwanese sweets, browse a few pages, and discover art with a drink in hand. Take your time, step inside, and stay a little longer wherever you feel at home.
