International Animation Day 2021 IN Kyoto

This year’s “IAD 2021 in Kyoto” will be held as a special class of Kyoto University of the Arts and its Graduate School, aimed for their students and faculty members.
If the infection status of the new coronavirus is improved, we will be considering to hold it as an ”extension class”, open to public. When the “extension class” becomes available, we will announce the details on this page as well as on the “What’s New” page of the ASIFA-JAPAN official website.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for your understanding.
