[Hokuto Pro Wrestling Village! ] 】
Sunday, July 27
Hokuto Pro Wrestling came to Nishiokoppe Village.

It was a series of heated battles.

It opens with children vs professional wrestlers.
Children flock to their strong bodies.
It was heartwarming to see them pushing each other.

After that, it was a furious match.
At times, there were so many heated battles that they jumped out of the field.

In a brawl at close range
Your hands will sweat.

Wrestlers with plenty of fan service.
Some of them also took a commemorative photo with Setoushi-kun.

It's amazing how much physical ability the wrestlers have.
I was jumping and spinning, and I was watching professional wrestling from beginning to end with their performance.

Thank you very much!!

[Culture Night]
July 25 (Fri)
In the Komu Museum of Art,
The annual Culture Night was held every summer.

Kimu usually closes at 5 p.m.
Only on this day, it is open until 20 o'clock.

Because it is a tree dream that usually only visits during bright Time Slot / Time of Day
I felt as if I had entered and night school.

On this day, not only the little ones who often use Kimume, but also junior high school students and adults who came to see their friends in the brass band club came to Kimu one after another.

Even if you live nearby
For the age group that has become less likely to stop by
For the first time in a long time, yellowtail It is also one of day when I step into Kimu.

Inside the facility
There was a performance by the Nishiokoppe junior high school brass band and a performance of "Mischievous Ghost Kenmun" by the puppet theater circle Doremi.

Among them, by three third-year students of the brass band club
I was very impressed by the trio.

Trumpet, horn and euphonium.

While creating each listening highlight
The overlapping harmonies were very beautiful.

Puppet show by volunteers in the Village
In collaboration with lighting, it was a performance full of realism.

After the performance
There was also time to interact with dolls and musical instruments.

The children who played until they were drenched in sweat
You must have 🌙✨ slept soundly that night

I'm looking forward to next year's Culture Night.
