“C” GPS Art Drawn Along the Waterside – A City Built in Harmony with Water✨
International cooperation by GPS art of “C” onto Tokyo! From March 8 (Saturday) to May 31 (Saturday), 2025, a new project of “Walk in Her Shoes 2025”, “Let’s Walk and Draw “C” on the Earth! Let’s start GPS art!
Walk in Her Shoes 2025″ is an international cooperation program to raise awareness about global water issues and the current situation of women and girls in developing countries by simply walking at a time and place of your choice. Let’s draw the “C” of CARE with GPS art and send it to the world!
GPS art in Koshigaya Lake Town, Saitama Prefecture. Koshigaya Lake Town is one of Japan’s largest environmentally symbiotic cities, created under the theme of coexistence with nature. The “Oosagami Regulating Pond,” which stretches in the center of the area, is a huge man-made pond that was built as a flood control measure, but is now surrounded by walking paths and parks, and is a popular place for citizens to relax. By walking along the pond, visitors can complete a GPS artwork in the shape of a “C”.
This area used to be farmland and wetlands, and with large-scale urban development, a new culture and lifestyle has been established. It is a symbolic place where urban functions such as shopping malls, eco-friendly housing, and regulating ponds have combined to form a modern waterfront culture.
Join the campaign to paint art in your own steps while admiring the waterfront, and reflect on the progress of women around the world!
This year, by walking or running and leaving a trail of the “C” of CARE and posting the saved GPS image on Facebook, X (Twitter), and Instagram with the two hashtags “#Walking for InternationalCooperation2025” and “#GPSArt,” you can donate 100 yen.
We are also developing a Walk in Her Shoes 2025 version of the “Reply Art” developed by the “Hokuriku GPS Art Club”. Please try this one as well!
