About the Exhibition

Color has a great power to attract and shake people’s mind. Colors of craft pieces are full of rich materiality that artists have elaborately brought out. Enjoy the impression at the moment you first look at a piece, then take your time to appreciate its charm. Self-guiding worksheets for children and adults are available. Various events will also be held for children from three to fifteen years of age.
