Current & Upcoming Exhibitions
Aomori | Exhibition by Tetsuji, Keiko & Risa Nakagawara
Textiles from the Cocoon — Carrying Light, Wearing the Wind
Dates: June 23–28, 2026
Venue: Special Exhibition Space, 3rd Floor, Sakurano Department Store Aomori Main Store
Following last year’s exhibition, we are pleased to return to Aomori for a second time.
The exhibition presents textiles created through a process that begins with the cocoon and continues through spinning, dyeing, and weaving. Visitors are invited to experience cloth that carries the traces of materials, time, and handwork.
Special Event During the Exhibition
A Small Gathering of Mawata Silk Spinning and Textile Viewing
Dates & Time:
June 23 (Tue) and June 26 (Fri)
Starting at 11:00 AM
Admission: Free
For details, please visit the Sakurano Department Store Aomori website.
Workshops
Our workshops offer small-group experiences centered around cocoons, mawata silk, hand-spun yarn, weaving, and the colors of plants.
Whether you are new to textiles or already familiar with handcraft, we hope these gatherings provide a quiet opportunity to connect with materials and experience the journey from cocoon to cloth.
