About this event
The "Fujishiro Library Festival" will be held at the Toride City Library. It features a wide variety of activities for both adults and children to enjoy, including storytelling sessions, various hands-on corners, and the customary recycled book fair. A stamp rally will also be held concurrently. At the Joyo Kensetsu Fujishiro Library venue, there will be a free distribution corner for magazines past their retention period (ends when supplies run out), an original cake strap-making activity using plastic bottle caps, a tea ceremony where visitors can casually experience traditional culture (paid), original bookmark-making using handmade pressed flowers, and a book coating workshop where you can protect books brought from home just like library books. In addition, interactive activities for both children and adults are prepared, such as the Library Festival Storytelling Session for enjoying warabe-uta (nursery songs), stories, kamishibai (paper theater), and picture books, as well as making message mini-cards, dice calendars, picture book clear files, and an electronic aquarium. The first-floor tearoom will also sell drinks and light snacks (yakisoba). At the Toride City Fujishiro Budojo venue, a recycled book fair will be held selling recycled books for 20 yen per book, with proceeds going toward library volunteer activity funds. In addition, there will be sales of handmade crafts created by volunteer members and a fishing game corner, with proceeds used to fund materials for cloth picture books to be donated to libraries and other facilities.
