Do you know the "Kanji of the Year" announced every December at Kiyomizu-dera Temple in Kyoto? This is a performance in which the "Kanji of the Year" character, which represents the state of the world for the year, is written large with a brush. "Taisho" means "to write large so that it is particularly noticeable." You can experience this "Taisho performance" at the popular Japanese culture experience cafe in Asakusa. There is no limit to the characters you can write. Please write your free ideas with a brush. Artistic calligrapher and contemporary artist Koji Takano will carefully guide you, so even beginners can feel at ease. Of course, you can take the completed work home with you. The performance is sure to look great on video! Let's keep a memento of the performance where you became an artist! You can face "calligraphy" by yourself and become an artist. You can feel refreshed by writing boldly and relieve stress. Why not experience the one and only "Taisho performance" in Asakusa?

You can use the name of a family member (only one name) instead of your own! In this hands-on class, you will polish the ink you use by yourself. You can see for yourself that the color of the ink gradually becomes darker.

The lesson begins and ends with a seated prayer. We will also explain the etiquette of the zarei in an easy-to-understand manner!
