■There are different age requirements for each class. Please check when you make an appointment if you will be bringing young children.
Other than the art experience, there are about 12 project exhibits of mainly glass arts in a year, and the works of the artists belonging to our facility or other domestic/international artists, are sold at the gallery.
You can enjoy the shop by just looking at the colorful and dainty works including glassworks, bowls, metal works, and jewelries. You may want to enjoy four seasons of Japan through these art works since the exhibits differ and revolve with the seasons.
Why not pick up some memorabilia or Japanese souvenirs while you're here and can see these "works which add color to life and make us enjoy our days"?
