At the same time, we will have an activity of original uchiwa (paper fan) making using traditional marbling design method “suminagashi”, which really goes with Yukata. It is going to be a nice memory for kids and even for adults to experience a traditional handcraft.
Feel free to join us and have fun a Japanese summer tradition!
On that day, you have a chance to try to wear Yukata (a cotton kimono) for free of charge.
Volunteer instructors lend us Yukata and show us how to wear them! For Yukata wearing, you need to do the reservation, so please check the link below and fill the form not to miss this great opportunity!
