Himiko visual café:

Himiko (In Japanese, it means “the child found fire”) was established from a concept of a playground for young artists, who nurture great ambitions to find themselves, like no others. At this gallery, art is combined with application, giving a comfortable and friendly atmosphere to reach viewers in term of a visual coffee as a good way to popularize art works to community.

Hiniko visual café started to open in 19th, Nov. 2005.
