Itinerary
Meeting Time: 11:25 / Start Time: 11:30 Duration: 90–120 minutes Choosing your favorite kimono fabric will likely be the hardest part (and the most fun!). Whether you cut the patterns into small pieces or apply them in large sections, your imagination will expand as you work. You will undoubtedly create a wonderful Daruma that far exceeds your expectations. Before you know it, you’ll fall silent, entering "the zone" and discovering a level of craftsmanship you never knew you had. Hand us your smartphone, and we will take photos and videos for you so you can create a commemorative album later.
