A Unique Showcase of Stationery by waji

From April 12 to June 1, 2025, the waji exhibit store in Kiyosumishirakawa will host the "Unique Stationery Exhibition". Organized by waji, a company renowned for manufacturing bags and leather goods from Sakai City, Japan, this event aims to offer a collection of distinctive stationery and miscellaneous items themed around the idea of curating items that would even inspire envy in creators.

Kiyosumishirakawa is known for its artistic ambiance, home to famous coffee shops and art museums, yet it retains a charming, down-to-earth character. Here, you will encounter a vibrant mix of people: young photographers wandering with cameras, couples exploring shops, exuberant schoolchildren indulging in extra pocket money, and sumo wrestlers frequenting the area. Through this exhibition by waji, we hope you can enjoy and experience the essence of Kiyosumishirakawa through all five senses.
