A clean room in a public facility just a 5-minute walk from the popular tourist spot Kawagoe's kura-zukuri district is the place to experience the program.
You will finish a small Jizo, one of the most popular Japanese Buddhist statue sculptures, by wood carving.
It is easy even for beginners as you only have to finish a half-finished piece up to rough carving.
The instructor, who has 24 years of experience as an artist, will kindly and carefully instruct you how to hold and use a carving knife.
There are two types of Jizo, a small one and a slightly larger one, but you can prepare your favorite one upon prior consultation if you wish.
