Miffy, the iconic rabbit character created by Dutch artist Dick Bruna, celebrated its 65th anniversary last year. A special exhibition at the Aomori Museum of Art will explore all things Miffy, with around 300 original drawings, sketches, and creative memos on display.
For those wanting to pick up a souvenir from their visit, there will also be a wide variety of event-exclusive merchandise available to purchase, including stuffed toys and figurines.
Adult admission to the event is priced at 1300 yen.
