Buffalo Takes Part in the Quirky Summer School 2025 Event
On August 3, 2025, the 'Quirky Summer School 2025: Let's Try the Mirin-Pic in Higashi Mikawa' will kick off, and Buffalo Co., Ltd., which is headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, is proud to be one of the organizing companies for this exciting event. This summer festival aims to blend creativity, learning, and enjoyment into an unforgettable experience for families.
The event, which showcases various workshops, was previously held on July 21, 2025, as part of the Quirky Summer School, receiving impressive feedback with a participant satisfaction score of 9.0 out of 10, particularly from children involved. Attendees can dive into hands-on activities using materials that are not generally available in the market, such as scraps from various companies, and engage in solving puzzles that are fascinating yet accessible to all family members.
In addition to creative projects, the festival will also feature delightful food workshops, including donut decoration and a cultural exchange between the Philippines and local agricultural products with a special twist on 'Halo-Halo.' Participants will not only have fun but will also learn about SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) and global food cultures, making it an enriching experience.
Buffalo strongly resonates with the event’s theme of enlivening the summer in Aichi, where they also have a headquarters. Their dedication to attracting families and communities to experience and appreciate the various aspects of this vibrant region is evident in their involvement in the Quirky Summer School.
