Saeki Yohin Ten is ACKT’s activity base.
We have been working on DIT (a word derived from the concept “Do it yourself=DIY,” meaning “to create together”) since April 2023 in gradual preparation for the opening of the base.
In December 2023, we will finish renovation work on the 1st and 2nd floors together with participants, and plan to start a full-fledged program centering around Saeki Yohin Ten going forward.
For the unveiling of Saeki Yohin Ten and to greet local people who will be of great assistance going forward, we are holding a mochi-pounding/kagami mochi making event at Yaho Station South Exit Green Space, located diagonally across from Saeki Yohin Ten. Kagami mochi is a traditional Japanese New Year decoration.
