Kayaku, in cooperation with the Masaryk Public Library in Vsetin, conducted a public workshop on Japanese calligraphy on 19 November 2019. During the workshop, 40 participants had the opportunity to sketch simple characters using authentic calligraphy brushes on rice paper under the guidance of the experienced mentor, Kaoru Ishida. After a bit of uncertainty in the beginning, all participants left with smiles on their faces and their works in hand, which illustrated Japanese lexical expressions such as “power”, “sky”, “cow”, “tree”, “moon”, “blossom”, etc.
We express our gratitude to the team at the Masaryk Public Library in Vsetin for organizing the event from beginning to end.
The same day was devoted to the second workshop called „How to make sushi“. Except of learning how to make sushi, the participants could taste their piece. Even the women from Vsetin Tea room, who willingly answered all questions about preparing and serving this traditional Japanese dish, can confirm that all participants were doing well.
Big thanks to Masaryk Public Library for the organisation of the event!
