At Aioi-no-Sato, which I introduced on the blog the other day, in addition to selling delicious bread from TSUKUDA bakery, Mr. Toyama, the director of the general facility, "I want to value the connection with local people," various events are being held.
One of them, I went to the Aioi Used Book Festival. I imagined a small used book exchange like a school bazaar only in the local area, but in fact I was surprised at a very full-fledged used book market! It is a used book city with a variety of quality and quantity, where unique used bookstores in Tokyo gather, and you can enjoy such used books in the neighborhood! And with my husband who loves books, I made a happy surprise voice.

Purchased a total of 17 volumes of Torahiko Terada's complete collection for 1000 yen. A drug
The organizer is an organization called "Aioi Book Lab". I think it will be very difficult to plan and prepare, but the staff at the venue are running happily, and "events for people who like books by people who like books" It has been transmitted.

At the venue, in addition to selling used books, lectures, talks, workshops, and live performances are also held.

The next event of Aioi no Sato is "Great East Japan Earthquake Charity Event Aioi Noryoichi" to be held on September 10. Japanese music workshop, Miraiminyo live, charity match for student professional wrestling, inchki hand-circled organ (What is it?) Ogura live, used books market and various faces. Let's participate by all means!
