Public facilities in Naka Ward host a variety of courses and events for lifelong learning. There are also many clubs and groups that make use of these facilities as a venue for their activities.
These facilities are a great place to start a new hobby, make friends in your neighborhood, or find something fun to do.

We offer a wide range of courses, including eurhythmics and storytelling for children, history, cooking, and handicrafts for adults, and yoga, gymnastics, and strolling around town for those who want to get some exercise.

Marimbatromic is held on the fourth Tuesday of every month for preschoolers and their parents. In this class, children can move their bodies in time with the music, make crafts with toys that make sounds, and come into contact with real musical instruments such as marimbas and drums. This is a very popular class with many repeaters.

Now in its sixth year, the popular “Honmoku Series” events are held around four times a year. Starting with a lecture on visiting places that are not easy to visit on one's own, such as 화물 (Kamotsu) Station in 니시키초 (Nishikicho) and the SL tour at 요코하마 혼목 (Yokohama Honmoku) Station, we have learned about various aspects of the history of Honmoku. These events are possible because of the connections between the facilities.

Various club activities, such as handicrafts, gardening, music, drama, gymnastics, and volunteer activities are held in the rooms of these facilities. You can also make connections with people living in the community, so please look for clubs and volunteer activities that interest you and get involved.

Shion started in 1992, the year in which Shinyamashita Community Care Plaza was established, and now meets on the first and third Thursday of every month. The twelve members of the group, all of whom are handicraft enthusiasts and live in the area, work together to produce handicrafts. We sell our products at local bazaars and donate the proceeds to charity. We enjoy making a variety of seasonal items and accessories. It is important for us to continue our volunteer activities for a long time. We try our best to keep up our activities as much as we can.

America-zaka Farm, which manages the farm at Honmokuwada Community Care Plaza, is a community activity club that grows vegetables. About three years ago, we advertised on the bulletin board at the Care Plaza, and the members that came along decided on the vegetables to be planted, the name of the farm, and the rules of the club. We also held a curry party using the vegetables we harvested with children from nearby kindergartens. The farm has helped to expand the community’s ties.
