Description
Experience the art of Kaga Yuzen dyeing at Youzen Youmei Studio. Learn about this traditional Japanese textile art form and create your own piece to take home.
Discover the most authentic and traditional Kaga Yuzen dyeing experience at Yuzen Youmei Studio, a historic workshop preserving centuries-old Japanese textile art. This is a truly unique, hands-on experience that cannot be found anywhere else.
In this 2-hour workshop, participate in the dyeing process—the heart of a technique that typically takes master artisans at least 6 hours to complete.
