Our workshop method today is three steps. We will look insight into Japanese culture from Temple. I will navigate you all, and we will do some exercise with small quiz/ quests about Japanese culture.Then, we make up small group for further discussion about Japanese mystery.
We will demonstrate how to make Higashi, one type of Japanese sweets, useing several wooden forms. You can try to make it, but, we are sorry that you cannot have it then and there because of the venue's rule, unfortunately. However, we will provide a few Higashi as your souvenir and you will try to create a small box for bringing them. It would be great for us if you can feel something Japanese sense through the tiny traditional sweets.
