23rd Kai Craft Fair

About this event

This craft fair shares the appeal of craftsmanship through direct interaction between makers and visitors. Inside the indoor exhibition hall at I-Messe Yamanashi, artisans showcase and sell their original creations. The application policy requires exhibitors to be the creators themselves, prohibiting the sale of purchased goods, raw materials, or mass-produced items. This year's recruitment covers both a Craft Category, including workshops, and an Art Category spanning painting, sculpture, photography, and calligraphy. Exhibitors are selected through screening by the executive committee, with submissions featuring hands-on workshop corners also accepted. The event runs from 10:00 to 17:00 on December 5, and from 9:30 to 16:00 on December 6. Admission is free, allowing visitors to leisurely explore the artworks. Held over two days at the I-Messe Yamanashi Exhibition Hall in Kofu City, this indoor event features handcrafted works by independent artists with free admission. Organized by the Kai Craft Fair Executive Committee and the Yamanashi Small and Medium Enterprise Support Organization.
