What to expect

Just steps from Tokoname's iconic “Tsuchikan-zaka” slope. Inside this renovated early Showa-era pottery factory, a nostalgic atmosphere lingers. Within the historic building that once supported a massive chimney, you can learn about Tokoname ware's history and encounter the fresh sensibilities of emerging artists.
