Iruma City Cultural Creation Atelier “AMIGO!”
Atelier Amigo is a facility that renovates and uses the building of the Saitama Prefectural Textile Industrial Research Institute, which was built in the early Showa period as a base for the textile industry.
In addition to concerts and rakugo (comic storytelling) performances, the facility also hosts many art workshops and events for the whole family to enjoy.
At the weaving and dyeing studio attached to the facility, visitors can try their hand at indigo and green tea dyeing, weaving knick-knacks on a loom, and hand-spinning wool.
The retro-style building has also been used for filming movies and TV dramas.
