Create your one-of-a-kind kimono art! Immerse yourself in the rich culture of kimonos from across all of Japan while crafting your own unique art piece. While many people know of kimonos, very few know about the signature patterns and variations across different regions of Japan.

A professional kimono expert will guide you through the history and cultural significance of kimono, making this both an enjoyable art and learning experience for beginners.
Choose from a variety of exquisite kimono fabrics: the vibrant Bingata from Okinawa, the earthy Oshima Tsumugi from Amami, the elegant Kaga Yuzen from Kanazawa, and the refined Kyo Yuzen from Kyoto.
