On the Jan. 9th, I showed students from the Rhode Island School of Design in the US around Shigaraki.

It was a packed program, with visits to the Shiagaraki Museum, Residency Program at Shigaraki Ceramic Cultural Park, Ceramic Factory, ceramic artists' studios, and a lecture by Murata Aya at SSS. It was a day with flurries of snow, but we'd like to thank Professor Shoji Satake and his students, and everyone we visited for participating.

Thanks to you, I think it was a great opportunity for people from outside to see the potential of Shigaraki.

Thank you very much.
