About this event
This is an event aimed at elementary school students where they can experience the craft of Takaoka lacquerware. Participants freely apply masking tape patterns onto vermilion-lacquered spoons and layer colors using cashew lacquer with sponges. You can enjoy the fun of designing patterns and finishing your very own original spoon. The hands-on sessions will be held 5 times at 11:00, 12:00, 13:00, 14:00, and 15:00, lasting about 30 minutes each. The 11:00 and 12:00 sessions accept 4 participants each, and subsequent sessions accept 8 each, for a total of 32 spots. It is open to 1st through 6th grade elementary students, and an accompanying guardian is required. Participating children join for 500 yen per person, while accompanying guardians can attend free of charge. A lottery will be held in case of oversubscription. The venue is the event booth inside Otaya-bito Market.
