The Global Citizen Exchange Center opened in 2010 as a hub for exchange activities and a space for sharing and expanding upon the philosophy and achievements of the Expo 2005, which was held in Aichi, Japan. The World Expo centered on the themes of "exchange" and "environment."
N&A installed artworks built around those same themes across seven different locations, both in and around the center, whose facilities include educational spaces, studios, and music rooms. The center offers a number of programs designed to satisfy its diverse range of visitors.
