Making Traditional Japanese Cultural Fans in Tokyo

Join us for a hands-on experience making your own traditional Japanese fan in the heart of Tokyo, just a short walk from Oimachi Station. This unique workshop takes place in a cozy cafe, where you can relax and enjoy a cup of coffee while learning about fan-making—a craft that has been passed down since the Heian period. You'll choose from a variety of beautiful Japanese patterns and decorate your fan using high-quality materials, including a patented coating that keeps your fan looking fresh and lasting longer.

With easy-to-follow guidance from a certified instructor, even beginners will feel confident creating a fan that's both stylish and meaningful. Each fan can be customized with sparkling Swarovski crystals, making it a great keepsake or gift.
