At GO FOR KOGEI 2024, you can experience the diverse value of crafts, such as their practicality and physicality, as well as the historical culture, natural environment, and regional characteristics that lie behind them. You can not only "see" crafts, but also enjoy collaborations with shops representing the Higashiyama area that use crafts, as a proposal for a rich lifestyle with crafts.

For example, at the spice specialty store "INSPICE KANAZAWA," you can taste the aroma of spices stored in tea canisters made by Kaikado, a long-established tea canister manufacturer in Kyoto.

You can enjoy the original aroma of the spices trapped in the airtight tea canister, and also enjoy the smooth feel of the tin tea canister.

Waguri Hakuro is a Japanese chestnut specialty cafe that uses Japanese chestnuts from Noto and pursues manufacturing and serving methods that make the most of their aroma and flavor. Here, you can experience the collaboration between crafts and food.

The Wajima lacquerware was made specially for the store by Akagi Akito, a lacquer artist with a studio in Wajima, Noto. The knives and forks were made by Takemata Yuichi, a metalwork artist based in Kanazawa. Along with these, you can enjoy two types of Mont Blanc, "Harizuri" and "Kincha."

By actually touching and experiencing the arts, you can get a closer and clearer idea of the value of craftsmanship in everyday life.

Why not enjoy new crafts in the modern era? Not just as something to look at, but as something that enriches your life and gives it new value and meaning.
