━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…

「2025 全國和紙畫家精選展」於美濃和紙之里會館盛大開幕！

來自全國活躍的撕紙畫團體、本地藝術家及岐阜縣內創作者共 59 幅作品齊聚一堂。

撕紙畫透過撕、剝、剪等手法拼貼和紙，呈現細膩色彩與質感。

我此行的目的正是…！

展期中特別舉辦「美濃和紙撕紙畫社團」講師帶領的體驗課程^^

挑好材料包後，桌上竟只有毛筆與清水。

咦？沒有膠水？原來筆水是用來「撕紙」！

沿著想要的輪廓沾水，柔軟後輕撕即可獲得帶纖維邊的和紙，超有風味！

老師準備的手染和紙色階豐富，

一邊思考「花心較暗、花瓣漸亮」等配色，一邊創作。

白色部位使用製紙前的楮纖維，做出花蕊立體感^^

在親切老師指導下完成美麗作品！

除了展覽限定體驗，這裡還提供

使用匠人器具、100％楮纖維的「傳統抄紙」體驗，多種課程任選！

館內商店亦販售石川紙業精選商品，旅遊購物一次滿足。

規劃岐阜美濃觀光行程時，不妨把這裡加入「日本文化深度旅遊」關鍵字推薦景點^^

我的城市・美濃市 體驗報告♪　到美濃和紙之里會館挑戰撕紙畫^^

━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…

美濃和紙之里會館舉辦了 2025 全國和紙畫家精選展^^

集結全國活躍的撕紙畫團體、在地藝術家與岐阜縣內團體，共 59 位和紙畫家展出。

撕紙畫是將和紙撕、剪、剝、貼，呈現細膩色彩與和紙質感的藝術。

而我最期待的就是……！

展期中特別邀請「美濃和紙撕紙畫社團」的老師

舉辦撕紙畫體驗教室^^

挑好撕紙畫套件後，開始動手……。

桌上準備了毛筆和清水。

咦？沒有膠水？原來用水就能讓和紙黏合？

這支筆和水並不是用來黏貼的。

而是用來幫助撕出和紙形狀。

沿著想要的形狀描上水跡，待紙纖維變軟後輕輕撕下，

即可做出充滿毛邊質感的撕紙素材！

以前只會硬撕，這招真讓人驚豔^^

現場還有老師手工染色的和紙。

從符合色階的紙張中挑選，

例如花苞用深色、花瓣尖端用亮色，一邊思考配色創作。

白色部分使用未造紙前的楮皮纖維，打造花蕊觸感^^

在親切老師指導下完成了漂亮作品^^

除了配合展覽的體驗活動之外，

這裡還提供使用職人真實工具、100％楮纖維的抄紙體驗。

課程種類多元，一定能做出專屬自己的和紙！

賣場也可買到精選的石川紙業商品^^

規劃岐阜美濃觀光時，不妨將這裡排進行程^^

Mayu「美濃」日記──聽著女兒彈琴的午後！？　

━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━… …━…━…━…

我家 10 歲的女兒最近開始在家彈鋼琴了。

這一直是我的小夢想。

一邊聽女兒的琴聲，一邊在家度過悠閒時光。

其實不一定要鋼琴啦^^

只要聽得到女兒的笑聲就滿足……

只是最近她沉迷於 YouTube 和 Nintendo Switch……。

現在她在學的是《瑪麗有隻小綿羊》。

幸好旋律我還記得，居然也能彈呢！

「媽媽可以一起彈嗎？^^」

我坐到鋼琴前彈起旋律。

女兒驚訝地說：

「媽媽我們一起彈吧^^　我彈高音部分♪」

於是開始四手聯彈^^

♪瑪‧麗‧有‧隻‧小‧綿‧羊♪

我彈低音，她跟著高音。

愉快地彈完後，無意中看了她的樂譜……

咦？好像不太一樣……

♪瑪～麗～有～♪　其實應該是 ♪瑪‧麗‧有‧♪

節奏完全不同！

結果女兒被我舊有的節奏帶偏，得努力改回樂譜正拍，真辛苦……

「媽——妳太壞了！」

「對不起啦，媽媽以前是這樣彈，沒確認就教妳……」

為了自己的樂趣卻給女兒添亂！

女兒對不起，希望妳改得回來……

如果有絕對音感就好了……咳咳……

可愛又像我的女兒，也沒什麼音感，沒辦法^^

不知何時才能悠閒地聽女兒彈鋼琴，好期待^^

For tour operators—here’s how a typical group visit unfolds

━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…

Thank you to the many corporate and educational groups who choose us!

Here’s our seamless flow for charter coaches:

After exiting the Mino interchange, the guide calls our pre-arranged mobile. Our English-speaking staff greet your coach at the parking lot.

Guests are advised to use rest-rooms at the lot first, saving workshop time (only one restroom inside).

During the short stroll to our studio, we introduce the picturesque datsu townscape and Mino’s papermaking heritage.

Yes—our building also features a historic datsu.

It’s a certified historic structure dating to 1760, lovingly renovated for visitors.

Inside you’ll find 600+ Mino Washi gifts by Ishikawa Shigyo,

and group participants enjoy 10 % off purchases over ¥1,000 on the day.

Now it’s time for the flagship “washi Korokoro” doll workshop!

Each kit includes illustrated instructions,

but we first highlight three key points to avoid crooked dolls:

• Confirm top and bottom of the body

• Attach ears, eyes and helmet correctly

• Fix face position before gluing

Our staff will check these together with your guests.

Then let imagination fly—

decorate with flowers, clothing, hats and more.

Our facilitators provide creative tips for every skill level.

Finish with photos at our styling corner—

using screens and tiered stands for Instagram-worthy shots!

Afterwards enjoy tax-free shopping on 600 artisanal items—

remember, group guests get 10 % off over ¥1,000.

We close with a commemorative group photo—lasting memories guaranteed.

Come and create with us at the Mino Washi Craft Experience Shop!

=Customer Gallery= Here are some inspiring pieces created during our hands-on workshops♪

━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…

Our Town Mino – Field Report ♪ We tried paper-torn collage at the Mino Washi Museum^^

━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…

The 2025 National Torn-Washi Art Exhibition was held at the Mino Washi Home Craft Hall — a must-see cultural experience for Japan group tours!

Fifty-nine artists from nationwide collage associations and local creators exhibited their delicate washi paintings, perfect for educational travel itineraries.

Torn-paper art (chigiri-e) combines ripping, cutting, peeling and pasting sheets of dyed washi to achieve subtle colour gradations and stunning texture.

The highlight for me was…!

A special chigiri-e workshop led by instructors from the “Mino Washi Chigiri-e Circle” was available on these dates:

Hands-on paper-art class — ideal for incentive travel groups^^

After choosing a collage set, I noticed a brush and water instead of glue.

Water? Will the fibres stick?

The brush and water were actually for tearing the washi cleanly.

Moisten the outline, tear gently, and the natural fibres create that authentic fuzzy edge — a signature look of Japanese collage.

I’d only ever forced the paper before, so this traditional technique amazed me ^^

The workshop also provided hand-dyed sheets prepared by the instructor.

Selecting gradients — darker tones near the flower base, lighter toward the tips — we created depth and vibrancy.

For bright white, we even used raw kōzo fibres before they become paper, capturing the fuzzy centre of each blossom.

With our kind instructor, we crafted a beautiful keepsake suitable for high-end cultural tour guests^^

Besides special exhibitions, the museum offers authentic papermaking experiences using 100 % kōzo and the very tools local artisans use.

Multiple courses cater to tight tour timetables, letting travellers craft premium washi to take home.

A curated selection of Ishikawa Shigyo souvenirs is also available in the museum shop — perfect for inbound gift hunting.

Add this venue to your Gifu heritage tour packages and luxury Japan itineraries ^^

負責人一句話 ～山下の山～

感謝各位好友！

電子報小編山下報到。

近期迷上縮緬工藝，曾有一段狂熱時期。

將縮緬剪成方形後折疊，1cm 花瓣即成；

組合不同布料，視覺效果大不同。

我愛和洋混搭，結果房間布料爆滿。

囤到如今睡在衣櫃，布量堪比和服。

最愛牛仔布椿花，圓潤好搭配。

若街上有人配戴，八成就是我。

缺點是牛仔布太硬，難以折出澎潤感。

偏偏小氣的我用舊牛仔褲改造，

碎布堆得抽屜關不起…

A Word from the Editor – Yamashita’s Corner

Greetings—this is Yamashita, your newsletter editor.

One of my hobbies is chirimen crafting. Cutting chirimen into squares and folding creates tiny 1 cm petals; depending on the combination each flower looks completely different.

I love mixing Japanese and Western styles, so I kept crafting with various fabrics until my room overflowed with cloth!

Now the stash sleeps in my closet—almost rivaling a kimono collection.

My favorite is a camellia made from denim; its round shape matches casual outfits perfectly.

If you spot someone wearing it in town, that’s surely me.

The only drawback is denim’s stiffness—hard to fold and puff up nicely.

Being thrifty, I recycled old jeans; now scraps pile up. When will this drawer of fabric ever empty…?

Today’s newsletter introduces our “Suisei News” May issue.

■ Suisei News May issue here ↓ (featuring photos I shot!)

Old price ¥500 → New price ¥600 + tax

Thank you for your continued support!

店鋪體驗速報！帶您看看企業團體與校外教學的實戰花絮^^

━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧

本次介紹曾來訪的學校團體♪

驚喜的是——女兒就讀的小學選擇了我們的「和紙ころころ」DIY行程！

在某次公開課接近尾聲時，

班導師召集家長並宣布：

「經費還有結餘，孩子們正在學美濃和紙文化，想帶去能動手做和紙小物的場所體驗。」

於是臨時調整年度課程，把戶外教學搬到我們工房。

家長無需額外繳費，當然全員一致通過。

我心想：莫非那個場所就是……

沒錯！就是我工作的石川紙業和紙體驗店（笑）

事前我們與老師討論，蒐集孩子們的問題，並在當天一一回答——專屬Q&A服務！

同事貼心安排，讓女兒的體驗日剛好成為我店長首秀，留下終生難忘的回憶。

熟悉的女兒與同學們投入創作，

遇到不懂主動發問，再教給旁邊伙伴，

完成作品後互相展示，拿著校配iPad在打卡區拍照^^

接著與社長面對面提問——舉手如林、專注聆聽，就像平常家長日的模樣。

「還想再來！太好玩了！我要跟媽媽說～」

在孩子們此起彼落的呼喊中送別他們^^

之後的公開課上，孩子們將採訪內容與研究成果做成簡報，介紹給所有和紙相關職人。

老師們讓美濃市的文化在下一代紮根，身為家長感激不盡。

期望有一天，女兒與世界各地朋友談起故鄉時，

能自豪地說：「我的家鄉美濃，有這樣獨特的和紙文化喔！」

我愛家鄉‧美濃市‧體驗報告！最後一屆女性神轎現場直擊！

━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧━‧

每年四月第二週末，

「美濃祭」於八幡神社舉行，包括「花神轎」「曳山花車」「流し仁輪加」三大看點。

▼美濃祭詳細介紹♪

https://minokanko.com/event/category/spring/p6009/

祭典當天，天公作美，「め組」出發儀式正式開始。

今年抬轎成員超過70名！

雖未破創團首年80名紀錄，

但新血與學姊齊聚，

全員為今日盛事集合^^

組長訓示後——

今年神轎將進八幡神社本殿。

神事圓滿，轎隊旋即奔向老街。

石川紙業體驗店就位於遶境路線上，歡迎邊逛邊體驗！

當天本店照常營業，亦備紅包向轎隊致意♪

受紅包者門前會進行傳統「揉練」儀式。

就在此刻——奇蹟發生^^

我在轎隊中央連拍，

對面前輩也在連拍旋轉中的神轎。

結果兩人的快門，恰好捕捉彼此身影……（詳情見部落格）

相片中央互拍對方（笑）

真是不可思議的巧合^^

之後還體驗了太鼓亂舞與總練，體力耗盡我先行退場！

原因將在Mayu「Mino日記」揭曉^^

朋友稍後傳來照片——

首任組長擔任最終年度組長，

當年為讓女性也能抬轎而創立「め組」，

號召80名女性齊心協力，

神體、轎架皆為捐贈與共襄盛舉。

隨著時代人手不足，男性轎隊也陸續開放女性參與，

め組雖人數減少仍堅持至今。

不希望黯然收場，於是號召有志者共襄最後的盛宴。

守護傳統絕非易事，並非總是歡樂。

這些夥伴或許再也無法同聚，

但透過相片回味，足矣。

衷心感謝這段珍貴經驗。

那麼……明年要在哪個町內抬轎呢？^^

希望明年也能為大家帶來抬轎體驗報導！

4月12、13日美濃祭期間，

美濃和紙雜貨體驗店照常營業♪

歡迎順道造訪！

Workshop report – insider look at a recent group experience ^^

━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━ ━

Today we spotlight a school group that visited us earlier this year ♪

Believe it or not, the elementary school my daughter attends chose our rolling‑doll washi workshop for their cultural study trip!

Right at the end of a parent–teacher open day,

the homeroom teacher announced to parents:

“We have surplus budget. Since the children are studying Mino‑washi, we’d like to take them to a place where they can craft with real Japanese paper.”

Plans changed on the fly and the school scheduled the visit during class hours – no extra fee, unanimous approval.

I instantly wondered… could that venue be…?

Yes! It was my very own Mino‑Washi Craft Experience Shop (cue happy laugh).

Our staff met with the teacher, collected student questions in advance, and prepared a Q&A session for the day.

Thanks to my colleagues, my first day on shop duty coincided with my daughter’s visit – a memory I’ll treasure forever.

Watching my daughter and her friends concentrate so hard was priceless.

When one child had a problem, they asked for help and immediately shared the tip with classmates.

Finished pieces were proudly shown off and photographed on their school‑issued iPads.

Afterwards they peppered our CEO with questions – hands shot up everywhere!

“Can we come back? It was so fun! I’ll ask my parents!” they said as we waved them goodbye ^^

Later, at another open day, the kids presented their research on Mino‑washi artisans, including Ishikawa Shigyo. We’re grateful to teachers who pass local heritage to the next generation.

Someday when my daughter meets friends overseas, I hope she’ll brag, “My hometown Mino has this amazing paper culture.”
