Muroran City Folklore Museum Lobby Exhibition: 150 Years of Muroran Education - Looking Back at Schools Through Pen Drawings

About this event

Muroran City will hold the "Muroran City Folklore Museum Lobby Exhibition: 150 Years of Muroran Education - Looking Back at Schools Through Pen Drawings" to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Tokiwa School, which opened in the 9th year of the Meiji era (1876). This exhibition showcases pen drawings by the late Kenichi Terachi depicting numerous school buildings that colored Muroran's educational history. Visitors can look back through warm pen drawings at the appearance of the schools, which grew alongside the population expansion to as many as 33 schools (22 elementary schools and 11 junior high schools) at their peak. It is a valuable opportunity to encounter changes in education and the history of schools that walked hand in hand with the local community.
