◎There is a museum in a place like this This is the kind of museum that makes you think, ``If you happen to come across a museum like this on the street, you'll be happy.'' ◎Good points ⚫︎An old folk house in Tomo turns into a stylish museum ⚫︎Take off your shoes and enjoy the warm wooden floor! ⚫︎The huge wooden beams on the ceiling are art. ⚫︎ Good use of lighting. ⚫︎Free admission (I don't know if this exhibition was a coincidence) ⚫︎Photos can be taken (I don't know if this exhibition was coincidental) ◎My theory When it comes to art, I think it's only when you look closely at each piece on this scale and face the creator that you can really feel the excitement. I hope they will continue to select and exhibit good works. I expected to have.

Admission is free and anyone can feel free to take a tour. vinegar. There are various works on display, and they are creatively produced. I can clearly see that. In addition, the break room has exhibitions. Along with the artwork, it has become a place for children to relax. It was.

Although the road is narrow, there is a parking lot in front of the store and you can park for free 😃 There is no entrance fee so I think it's worth going (*^^*) Handmade works such as accessories and small items were sold.

This is a gallery run by Sojukai! Pictures drawn by people with intellectual disabilities are on display. It was a place that made me feel something (...🤔) in my heart that I lost while being chased by everyday life! I would like to visit again.

Interesting experience to see art museum focused on disabled/special needs people. The old building also featured a strong characters from old time Japan.
