The “Akasaka Fire Station Disaster Prevention and First-Aid Fair” will be held at the ITOCHU AOYAMA ART SQUARE on September 1, to coincide with National Drill Day, with the aim of contributing to the local community. This exhibition will display top 64 works from the Fire Truck Sketch Contest as well as photographs that depict scenes from the Great East Japan Earthquake and rescue and first-aid activities. Also planned are events that offer drills and experiences shared to prepare for unexpected situations, such as an inland earthquake in Tokyo or a Nankai trough earthquake, through cooperation between the Akasaka Fire Station and those from the region.
The event, which will last for six days, will deepen the understanding of disaster prevention and first aid for everyone, from children to adults.
