Takahama City Ceramics Village Kawara Art Museum/Library

Takahama City Ceramics Village Kawara Art Museum and Library is operated by NOMURA as the designated manager.
It was originally opened in 1995 as an art museum with the theme of ``Kawawara'' in Takahama City, Aichi Prefecture, a major production area of Sanshu tiles, which boasts the highest production volume in Japan. In 2008, management changed to a designated administrator, and from April 2023, it became a cultural complex together with the city library.
Based on the concept of ``a forest of connections where people and communities grow,'' we aim to create a further cycle of feeling, learning, activities, and interaction by bringing together the museum, the library, and a variety of people.

The art museum creates a place where a variety of people and things come together, with the tagline "Art Museum for Everyone," through exhibitions in a wide range of fields, including roof tiles, and a variety of projects that emphasize regional collaboration.
The library provides a familiar library space for everyone in the main building and three facilities in the city, and as a ``supporting library'', we bring books into your daily life.
