Plan description

★ COOL HIROSHIMA ★
Japanese calligraphy is an artistic form of writing with a brush and ink to express your mind.
As a traditional visual art, people look at the calligraphy and appreciate the beauty and impressions of characters and their meanings.

Unlike paintings or other writings, you have only one chance to write with a brush. The brush strokes cannot be corrected or even rewritten.

Usually, you need to sit straight on the floor and focus on calligraphy,
but in this plan we provide tables and chairs for overseas visitors as they may find it difficult to sit on the floor.

Our school is located in central Hiroshima and easy to access, come stop by on your visit to this area if time permits between your sightseeing programs.​ ​
As a memory of your Hiroshima trip, join our special Japanese calligraphy experience offered by a professional instructor.

※English speaking guide is available.
※ Gift brush and plain folding fan included.

Complimentary brush and plain paper folding fan! English translation!

You can take home the brush and the folding fan you used during the class.

All artworks created by participants can be unique and express personalities of each participant.


You will use new brushes and folding fans selected by the instructor.

English interpreter is available for this class to ensure better understandings of calligraphy techniques.

Writing a message on the folding fan has been a tradition for thousands of years​ ​

Commonly, a folding fan made of a bamboo and a Japanese paper is used as a fashion accessory or an art object.

But in the past, people wrote messages or short poems on them.


As a memory of your Japan trip, why not make a special gift by writing kanji characters on the folding fan?

Mr.Yosui Sugioka

Our instructor is Yosui Sugioka, a distinguished calligrapher of Hiroshima.


In this masterclass you will choose any kanji you like and will get samples to practice writing.

Under the guidance of our instructor you will learn the basics of brushstrokes, so feel at ease as this class is suitable for complete beginners.
