It is a training facility for craftsmen to hand down and develop traditional crafts cultivated in Ishikawa, and to promote crafts culture with "training, showing and participating" as its theme. It was found in 1989 as a commemorative project of the 100th anniversary of Kanazawa City government. There are five sub-workshops: ceramics, lacquer ware, dyeing, metalwork, and glassware. In addition, the citizens' workshop has been opened for citizens, and many crafts classes are held throughout the year. It displays excellent craftswork and materials, and shows its visitors the way students create. Its students learn high techniques and seek for the possibilities of new arts and crafts. |
