Momoshima in Onomichi city, is a small island with a community of artists aiming to revitalise the rural island through contemporary art. A locally and internationally renowned artist, now resident of the island, serves as the directors of ART BASE MOMOSHIMA, an art centre established in a school that had been closed for 12 years. There are also many attractive accommodations options available on Momoshima, such as an artistically renovated Japanese-style building, or a relaxed stay in an entire villa with a view on the sea.
