Out-reach activities play an essential role to connect researchers and society. Researchers should deploy their results or broadcast what they did, and these actions contribute to the society's understanding. As for out-reach activities, (scientific) museums can help researchers in approaching society since they usually work with local educational institutes and government. This paper reports a social event that aims to connect robotics communities and society with understanding together a future life with robots. The event is composed of a forum, interdisciplinary talk sessions and exhibits. In addition, we discuss on a role of robotics for such science communication with collaborating with local professionals such as museums.
