AN INTIMATE VIEW OF THE CULTURE IN JAPAN
*No Japan Trips planned for 2025. Short waitlist available for Fall 2026. Japan tours are ceramic related with craft and food components. These tours give the opportunity to enter the intimate world of artists and artisans, visiting their homes and studios. We are also fortunate to be visiting my mentor, a Living National Treasure in Bizen. The trip accommodates ONLY 6 participants and currently has a short waiting list.
