Meet Artisans Downtown

Japan has a rich and ancient culture of artisan craft-making. From fascinating Kintsugi, in which broken pottery is mended with precious metals to create serendipitous and sustainable new treasures to a closer look at steel Sword Making, each experience represents an immersion into Japan’s distinctive heritage. Guests can also discover the art of Woodblock Printing, which delves into the 400-year-old practice that gave us Edo block prints and ukiyo-e, and other traditional artisan crafts.
