Summer Workshop – A Summer Fan

If you are interested in Japanese art and culture, why don’t you design your own fan with Japanese calligraphy?

On this workshop you can learn how to concentrate on flow, to conduct and apply it with brush and ink in a peaceful setting.  You will be shown the basic principles of writing Japanese characters; using the traditional Japanese materials of a brush, ink and Japanese paper. You will be guided how to create your first brush strokes and how to build on these basic steps to create some lovely Japanese characters on a traditional Japanese fan.

Everybody is welcome – no calligraphy experience or Japanese language skills are necessary. All supplies are included as rental, so no need to bring anything.
