About this event

At the Former Ichikura Family Residence in Akiruno City, the once-a-year evening opening event "Yoruichi" will be held. Amidst the charming atmosphere of the traditional folk house—distinct from daytime—you can enjoy storytelling of local folktales and a mini-concert featuring the erhu, sanshin, and Irish flute. Why not spend a nostalgic, family-friendly time listening to Akiruno folk stories told by civic commentators and folklore groups while surrounded by heartwarming music? Admission is free, and no advance reservation is required.
