Concept
People, mastery, local, past to present, then connecting to the future.
Feel the festival beyond the time and space with fine-tuned sense
It is an event called “1000 NEN MIRAI KOUGEI SAI”
(One thousand years future craft festival) aiming
at creating a chance for people living now
to meet the traditional craftsmen in person,
and touch their products.
We believe that it will help people to understand the craftsmanship
of our town and eventually to succeed passing the manual skills down to the next generation.
The character ”工” used in words “工藝”([koguei] craft) and
”人工”([jinko] artificial) consists of three lines, top bar as heaven,
bottom as soil and the vertical line binding both as human life in between there.
People, mastery, local, past to present, then connecting to the future,
joining these various points is the grand aim of the festival.
