2020.10.16 MHD Artists Scholarship Program
MHD Artists Scholarship Program was established and the showcase was held.
Since 2017, MHD Moet Hennessy Diageo K.K. has been continuously supporting the activities of Able Art Japan, a non-profit organization; in 2017, we hosted an in-house artist talk event, an art appreciation at Mori Art Museum and dinner etiquette class, and in 2018, we have been collaborating to organize art viewing and social events at Espace Louis Vuitton and, in 2019, a food, art and storybook event at the LVMH Kodomo Art Maison, to increase interaction between artists and employees.
To provide more direct support to artists, we have launched the MHD Artists Scholarship Program. MHD employees were involved in the selection process for this support program to help Able Art Company artists achieve further success as artists.
The winners for 2020 are as follows
Yuma Suda (Tokyo, Japan)

The presentation of Yuma Suda and Kosuke Ota, who completed their works, was held online on October 14 (Wednesday). Due to the corona disaster, they changed their original plan and completed their work at different locations and times. This time, as a new challenge, Mr. Ota chose Mt. Fuji as a landscape painting subject, instead of the animals, flowers, and people he usually draws. He aimed for new growth. Through a sketching trip to Ishigaki Island, Mr. Suda actually swam with dolphins in the sea and completed a dynamic picture of marine life.
Due to the corona disaster, Mr. Kasuga and Seiyamizu were also forced to change their plans and will hold a separate presentation.
MHD Moet Hennessy Diageo K.K. will continue to support this project.
