KYOTO SHOKUNIN WEEK

Let's try!! : Experience of making traditional Kyoto handicrafts

Kyoto, once the capital city of ancient Japan, continues to nurture the traditional Japanese arts. Kyoto's traditional handicraft artists are renowned for their careful eye to detail and masterful technique. Their unparalleled skill is evident in the works themselves, from Japanese sweets to kimonos or other handicrafts.
Although viewing these pieces is one way to enjoy the traditional Japanese arts, making your own masterpiece can shed a whole new light on these ancient traditions. Why not give it a try?
