Japanese Calligraphy Workshop

Japanese calligraphy is a form of artistic writing dating back to the 6th century. To discover the art, we'll meet at the Okeiko Japan Academy in Miyajima, located in a 300-year-old Zen temple.

Once inside, we'll provide you with a bamboo brush and black ink. You will choose a kanji from the options available. Over 30 minutes, you'll learn to write your name in Japanese letters in a calming environment and practice the kana calligraphy style to sign your work.

We'll conclude the workshop approximately 30 minutes later.
