Embrace your creativity this autumn while discovering the rich and fascinating aspects of Japanese culture.

During the school holidays in April, as we transition into autumn, we experience increased rainfall compared to the summer months. This change in weather may present challenges when planning activities for your children.

This workshop would provide an opportunity for participants to fully engage in and learn about Japanese culture while enjoying an indoor setting.
Pencil writing, calligraphy, Japanese language quiz from books and crafts - all in one for two hours full of fun! You will receive a set of Japanese cartoon/character colouring sheets and a pocket size hiragana/katakana chart at the end of workshop.

Maiko Howell, the master of Japanese traditional calligraphy, who has been running children's calligraphy class in throughout Eastern Japan since 2017 in conjunction with her motherhood, will guide your child/ren at the workshop.

-Date & time: Wednesday 16 and Saturday 23 April, starting at 10am on both days.

-Location : KIN Creative Space, 20 Beach Road, Kingston Beach TAS 7050.

-Ages 7- 12 (Grade 1 - 6) only

-Bookings required. Siblings of participants who are under the target age are welcome to attend at no cost, but we ask that they are accompanied by adults during the workshop.

-Previous / current Japanese language learning/speaking environment is not necessary but definitely a plus as we write Japanese sentences and use Japanese for context.

-No materials needed.

-The venue is located at the rear of Kingston Beach Hall. Parking is not available on site but there is parking nearby the Salty Dog and down on the beach - please remember not to use the Atlas Barbell private parking area.

**Please do not attend the workshop if you are feeling unwell.

If you have any further questions, please contact Maiko via email at maiko.calligraphy@gmail.com .
