Pass the Baton Market is being held today and tomorrow. About more than 1,000 T-shirts will be available for sale , and there will also be an event featuring Hokuriku rice.

The "Pass the Baton Market" is a flea market that sheds light on the background, process, and local culture of manufacturing, including B items, dead stock, and items not usually sold in stores, that are stored in corporate warehouses.

The 16th edition of this exhibition will be held today, Saturday, July 20, and Sunday, July 21.

The centerpiece of this year's event is the "NEW 'T' OWN CLUB. This event will feature T-shirts that have been stored in warehouses, and will bring together over 1,000 T-shirts that have been stored in the warehouses of partner companies such as "BEAMS" and "Dalton".

There will also be a remake booth to help people use their T-shirts for a long time, where they can try their hand at silk-screening and Aizome. , if you are looking for T-shirts for the summer, please come and visit us.

Also, there is a project called "Rice Disturbance". . Of course, this is a reference to the "Rice Disturbance" that appears in Japanese history textbooks. To recap, about 100 years ago, the people of a fishing village in Toyama Prefecture were so frustrated by the soaring price of rice due to hoarding and selling out of rice that they rushed to the rice store and demanded a discount. This uproar sparked the "rice riot," which spread nationwide.

In the past, there was rice, but it did not reach the people who wanted it, and today, there is rice, but there are fewer and fewer people to whom it can be delivered. . Although they are in stark contrast, the desire to bring rice to the world is the same. This project should provide an opportunity for people to think about rice.

In terms of the specifics, there will be a kitchen car with old rice from Hokuriku farmers, rice for tasting, and a tasting corner of Hokuriku prepared foods by Tsuriya, Tsukuda no Tsukudani, and the Marine Science Department of Toyama Prefectural Himi High School.
