<\/p>\nKarakami is traditional Japanese woodblock-printed paper which is often used to make sliding doors (fusuma) and wallpaper. Much of Japanese culture and its aesthetic sensibilities were based around karakami. At this special event, a professional craftsman from Karacho (Japan’s only karakami maker in operation since the Edo period, est.1624 in Kyoto) demonstrates the karakami process. Following the demonstration, participants have the chance to make two sheets of letter paper themselves. The workshop is run in English and Japanese by instructors Akihiko Toto and Aiko Senda. Learn the ancient craftsmanship of karakami. This workshop is part of a series of Japanese cultural experiences \u201cThe Way of Japan\u201d run by NPO Hearty Care Foundation to promote interaction amongst the international community.<\/p>\n
