Triangle Rush Exhibition Hall, Art museum in Yuanli Township, Taiwan
Triangle Rush Exhibition Hall is an art museum in Yuanli housed in a converted warehouse with red brick walls. The space contains multiple exhibition sections dedicated to rush weaving and traditional crafts from the area.
The Farmers' Association of Yuanli Township converted an unused warehouse into this cultural institution to preserve rush weaving techniques. This transformation grew from a desire to keep the region's agricultural crafts alive for future generations.
The exhibition displays rush grass weaving through live demonstrations and artifacts including traditional mats, hats, and farming tools from the area. You can watch artisans at work and understand how this craft remains active in daily life today.
Visitors can join hands-on workshops in dedicated DIY classrooms to learn rush weaving techniques directly from experienced instructors. These sessions offer a chance to practice the craft yourself and take home something you create.
A statue of Hong Yang, an early rush weaving instructor, stands in the museum to honor his role in developing local techniques. This memorial reminds visitors of the individual craftspeople who shaped this art form.
