Works by Kaname Narumi, a potter from Hirosaki City, are on display. Kaname Narumi studied under Hajime Kato, a living national treasure, and produced works using the ashes of apple trees as glazes and works using various techniques from the life of semi-agricultural and semi-pottery. At the coffee shop, you can drink coffee with Narumi Kaname's bowl. Citizens' galleries are also held by local people.
