The Japan Foundation Kyoto Office has been organizing ”An Evening of Noh and Kyogen” every Autumn to provide foreigners with an opportunity to experience Japanese traditional culture. With the cooperation of the Shigeyama family of Kyogen as well as the Katayama and Kongo families of Noh, this event started in 1974, the year following the establishment of the Japan Foundation. The 35th staging of this annual event was on October 24, 2008.
