Step into the world of kintsugi, the ancient Japanese art of golden repair.

For centuries, artisans have honored the life of broken ceramics by mending them with shimmering veins of lacquer and gold — turning loss into beauty, and imperfection into strength.

In this immersive workshop, held inside an authentic artisan’s studio, you’ll learn the philosophy, techniques, and heart behind kintsugi.

Guided by a master craftsman, you will bond broken pottery pieces using synthetic lacquer, fill in missing fragments with resin, and gently dust them with a silver-based golden powder to restore their soul.

No experience is needed - all materials and tools are ready for you. Come empty-handed, and leave carrying a piece that is uniquely yours: a vessel with its own story of resilience.

For those coming by car, please use one of the nearby coin parking lots.
