I am very glad to give you further information and connect you with event organizers.

Mr. Susumu Ito, Executive Chairperson of these events, said to me on the phone, "Exhibitions held in December are a little sad as it is the time that Shimura kun passed away. So this time, I just wanted to celebrate his birth in a cheerful mood with people in the city and Fujifabric fans at around his birthday, 10th July."

Mr. Ito read the notebooks put on the table at the exit in Exhibition in 2011. There, Fujifabric fans wrote massages, and many of them said, "I was moved by views, people and many many more things in Fujiyoshida City." admiring his hometown.
He felt a sense of mission as a citizen of Fujiyoshida that he ought to make his hometown be deserved for such a praise.

Shimura kun simply loved music - he immersed himself in music.
He even said, "I don't want to be a man who is all right without music.".

What a fabulous event celebrating Shimura kun's birthday with people who love him so much from the bottom of their heart by playing and singing the music he made!

If you are thinking of visiting Fujiyoshida City sometime around his birthday, how about going down there during these wonderful events?
It would be your unforgettable memory, I promise!!

Fans in overseas, and non-Japanese fans living in Japan,would you help me to spread this information to your friends? It is much appreciated.
Thank you!!
