Why You Should Visit
The sixth edition of a selling exhibition where you can pick up and buy ceramics by makers based mainly in Kyoto. A spin-off of the "Coffee & Ceramics" series running since 2022, this time it widens from coffee cups to the plates that carry cake, biscuits and bread. More than twenty makers take part, including Masahide Nishide, Mieko Yagi, Shinroku Kiln and Koshun Togei, so you can hunt for an everyday favourite among plates of every material and technique. Hand-drip coffee from Globe Mountain Coffee and biscuits from Kyoto's Murakami Kaishindo are on hand, and entry is free. For anyone who wants to choose ceramics over a cup of coffee between the Okazaki museums.
