Things to know
About the Activity
This is a special opportunity to grow closer to Japan while making an impact! Enjoy craft making, using materials local to Kagoshima Prefecture, while practicing fair trade and sustainability! This hands-on experience reflects our conscious living and sustainable development goals, and proceeds directly benefit disadvantaged members of our community who pour love and passion into preparing the organic cotton, Oshima Tsumugi silk, Kurobuta leather, and Yakushima cedar that we will be working with. Let’s share stories, make one of kind souvenirs and relax in a cozy space in the heart of Kagoshima city!2 hours
