SHOJI HAMADA Memorial Mashiko Sankokan(Reference)Museum was established in 1977 by the potter Shoji Hamada, using part of his personal home, in order to share his collection of works, which he had collected with delight and benefit as a personal reference for his pottery, in the hope that the wider public may also find them a useful “reference”. It is our hope that the you can experience Shoji Hamada ‘s world view, born of a healthy rural lifestyle, in the rich natural surroundings of the museum grounds.
