Overview of the Exhibition

Every year, furniture artists active in Hyogo Prefecture bring new chairs from each workshop and display them one by one. The theme this time is "Shiko's Chair". Under the words "Shiko", which can be grasped in various ways, such as "thinking", "oriented", "trial", "paste", "supreme", we will display a leg of this year with the thoughts of individual creators. What is the "Shiko's Chair" created by furniture artists? Please enjoy the comfort of each chair and the texture of the wood while feeling the scent of the wood overflowing at the venue. This time, in addition to the new chair, you can also see other works of each exhibitor (wood furniture and accessories) in each exhibition space.
