Embassy of El Salvador

We’d like to thank El Salvador’s Ambassador Diego Dalton and his team for supporting Artober and Artedly since the project began. We’re grateful to work with a country that places such importance on art and the people who create it.

Through this partnership, we’ve been able to share artwork by Tokyo-based artists in El Salvador and welcome Salvadoran artists here in Tokyo. We’re delighted to continue that relationship at Artober 2026, with the Embassy joining us for Saturday’s Art & Connection event.
