On Sunday, November 3rd, the Deaflympics awareness event “Deaf Sports & Art Fair 2024” was held at Square Ebara! The event started with greetings from Hayato Uematsu, the ward’s official Deaflympics supporter, and Erina Yuguchi, a deaf athlete, at Hiratsuka Hall. In the arena, participants enjoyed the world of deafness through a table tennis experience corner using the “Miruoto” sound visualization system, a deaf athletics experience corner, and an art workshop using sign language by artist Hidehiko Kado.

The Tokyo 2025 Deaflympics will be held in November next year. As part of the "Deaflympics Awareness 120% Project," the ward will continue to carry out activities to raise awareness of the Deaflympics and promote understanding of hearing impairments!
