Choose materials for your own work
Bumpodo offers materials and tools for your own work, a different purpose from viewing finished art or browsing books. The current floor guide places paints and art materials on 1F, stationery and design/comic materials on 2F, and printmaking, clay and paper on B1. Choose the medium first, then compare the tools on that floor. Check particular colours, sizes and brands before travelling for them.
WHERE · On foot from here
Which side of the station, and how far
East of Jimbocho Station, about 250 m in a straight line from the station point. The position is the official address point and may differ from the entrance. The shaded areas are about 5 and 10 minutes on foot from here.
Walking bands are computed by FOW on the OpenStreetMap surface street network at 80 m/min and drawn as a smoothed approximate area around the streets reached. They ignore exit positions, station interiors, underground passages, signals, slopes and routes inside buildings — not directions; follow on-site signs.

Treat the cafe, gallery and classes separately
The directory also lists a cafe on 3F and a gallery on 4F. Choose a drink, exhibition or making class separately from buying materials. If a class is the purpose, check its current programme, booking, language and material conditions separately. Compare buying your own tools here with a booked workshop that includes materials.
Use the store address and current operator information
The main store is at Jimbocho 1-21-1, distinct from the company office address. Current operator information lists the main store at 10:00–18:30 and 6F until 18:00. Do not plan from another directory’s later closing time; check notices for the shop or programme you intend to use. If you need foreign-language advice or step-free access, ask about the support and route for your visit in advance.
