Notes

Higassy – Higashimurayama’s official character, created in 2014 to mark the 50th anniversary of the city’s establishment, to show the city’s appeal.

“I learned about this character from people from Higashimurayama City who came to visit the ceramics studio. The head was very difficult to make. Because of my impaired hands, whenever I made anything I had to figure out how to use various tools as if they were my own fingers.”by Mr. Takashi Kita.
