It's a place I visit regularly because I look forward to encountering eye-opening works, but due to the coronavirus pandemic, I have refrained from visiting. However, the other day, the ``Hosokawa-ryu Bonseki Exhibition'' was introduced on News in the evening, and I couldn't wait to see it. Bonseki is a miniature art that uses natural stones and white sand to depict nature on a black lacquered tray, originated by Lord Tadaoki Hosokawa. There were about 30 pieces on display, and each one took my breath away. As I was peering intently, a woman approached me, so I thought she was a curator, so I asked her, ``Are these images drawn?'' and ``How long does it take to make them?'' Oh my god! It was the person who created the work. It looks great together with the work. Time passed by in the blink of an eye, and it was an unforgettable autumn moment.

(Translated by Google) I went to visit for the first time, such as Higo inlay, bamboo crafts, things made with Japanese paper. A handmade classroom was also open and interesting. All are wonderfully worth seeing. Of course, there was also a sale, so if you are interested you can go there once. (Original) 初めて見学に行きましたが、肥後象嵌や竹細工、和紙で作成された物など。 手作り教室も開かれていて興味深いものでした。 どれも素晴らしく一見の価値ありですね。 勿論、販売も有りましたので興味有る方は一度は行かれてもいいかなと。

細川琉盆石を観に伺いました。 どの作品も繊細でとても素晴らしかったです。 ありがとうございました(^-^)

It's a craft center specializing in traditional ways of making things😀 Good luck 😀 Wonderful

(Translated by Google) I like traditional crafts, but it's so close that I think I can always go there, but I can't. But it was good because there was a Hakata exhibition. I bought a wooden plate and a Hakata weave half width belt❗ (Original) 伝統工芸品が好きなんですけど、近すぎていつでも行けると思いつつ、なかなか行けないんです。でも、ちょうど博多展があってたので良かったです。 木工品の銘々皿と博多織りの半幅帯を購入しました❗

On the second floor here, the Shodai-yaki spring pottery festival is held. It was happening so I stopped by. At my house, from the time my child entered elementary school, Takemiya kiln rice bowl of Shojiro ware Large and small plates, cups, teacups, etc. I'm using it♪ On the first floor, there are cute dolls...

陳列品はそう多くない。無料だが。九州の布製品の紹介及び販売があった。陳列見学は距離が1m以上あって布目も見えない。いい加減な陳列と思えてしまった。学芸員なしの会館なのだろう。市営にしては残念なところ

時々伺いますが、工芸会館という事もあり熊本県内外の工芸品を知る事が出来ます。イベントの時はよく行きます。静かにゆっくり見学出来ます。ただ物より人、行く度に感じるのはスタッフの方の対応です。質問にも丁寧親切に笑顔で答えて頂きます。大好きな施設の１つです‼️

Since the name is Kumamoto Crafts Hall, you can see that there are various kinds of items on display, but the exhibition of cutlery is ------- Isn't Kawajiri's specialty, after all, cutlery?

Visited on the last day of the Higo Inlay Exhibition ❇️ A number of Edo Kiriko 🥃 displayed in the craft shop "Kura" on the 1st floor 🤲 When you hold them in your hands and look at them, you will be enchanted by the beauty that you will forget the passage of time. As expected, it dates back to the Edo period. Next up is traditional Japanese crafts 👍️ It's now the Kumamoto Crafts Hall, but I was told that they were exhibiting crafts from all over the country for a limited time ⬅️ If you go to the back, you'll see the adjacent sake brewery ❗ It was supposed to be a sake brewery tour this time. 💧There were various kinds of 🍶products at the shop, but since it has already been two years since I became a Sober Curious, I purchased the original Mizutaka 🛍️ tote bag (1,000 yen).I returned to the demonstration workshop. Can I go up the stairs to the 2nd floor? The moment I stepped out and said that, the inlay exhibition was over. ⌚5 minutes ago😊 Your time allocation was biased towards Edo❇️Kiriko😃 Proper time management😉 *Admission fee. Parking is free.

Rather than a place to appreciate things, it is a place to experience and learn about crafts, and to sell crafts. It seems like the age group is older and there are a lot of repeat customers.

小代焼の窯元展が2階で行われていました。色々な窯元の方がスタッフをされていてお話も伺えたのでとてもよかったです。駐車場はイベントがあるとすぐに満車になりそこが不便ですね。

(Translated by Google) It's a very nice place with various exhibits, but it's far from the city center so you have to make a decision to go. (Original) 様々な展示がありとてもよい場所なのですが、市内中心部から遠いので、行くのに決断がいります。

It's been a while since I last visited, and there was an exhibition and sale of bamboo baskets in the second floor hall. I want to go again 👍

A superb large house of craftsmanship. Cutlery exhibition when I passed there (there are two other blacksmiths a little further down the street). Almost all facets of artistic craftsmanship are represented... Don't forget to go to the back of the building where a truly remarkable sake house is hidden

I went to a bamboo craft exhibition. There was a lot of student work lined up, and everyone was very good at it. I'm happy to be able to buy something good at a low price ☺️

催し物があった際に行きました。 見学・体験もできるそうで見学させてもらおうとしましたが、係の人も職人さんも無愛想で居辛くて無理でした。 駐車場の所の警備員から「20分以上居るな」と言われたし、利用しにくい。

予約して竹籠作成したが、非日常感たっぷりで、集中しました。良い経験させていただきました。1回作成600円30分～40分ほど

(Translated by Google) I like it. I'm interested in various events (Original) 好きです。 いろんな催し物に興味があります

I went to make a bamboo water gun. I was able to make a bamboo water gun and try it out outside. In a place like a hideout in the back, there was a sunken ship that had been touched by a ghost. There was a liquor factory in the back, and there were instructions on how to make it. You can get a lot of red sake for free at the shop. The number of people seemed to be good. It was featured on BS-TBS's Rui Yoshida's Sakaba Drifting Chronicles. There was a German doll exhibition on the second floor, and there were things you could actually touch, which was very interesting. The people were nice, and at the end we received a bamboo dragonfly and a bamboo windmill for free. There were some very interesting products, including reverse-spun sesame seeds. The place is also a streetscape of Edo, and I wrote about manju at a nearby manju shop. There was something very nice. I think ⭐️5 is fine here as well.
