Этот каллиграфический семинар посвящен созданию текста, связанного с окружающим регионом горячих источников Беппу. Участники могут научиться писать такие слова, как '温泉' - 'онсэн' (что означает 'горячий источник') и '地獄' - 'дзигоку' (что означает 'ад'), под руководством дружелюбного местного инструктора. Помимо возможности забрать свой уникальный шедевр домой, это также фантастическая возможность погрузиться в очарование традиционной японской культуры, изучая не только технику, но и этикет японской каллиграфии.

Not simply an art class, this unique activity is taught directly by a professional painter. Exclusive to Beppu, this workshop is led by renowned Japanese artist Tomoe Higashi, who also speaks English. Tomoe studied art at Bath Spa university in the United Kingdom, before returning to Japan to become a full-time artist. Offering a rare chance to interact with a local artist, this workshop is centred around creating personalised cherry-blossom inspired pieces, providing participants with a cultural and artistic souvenir to take home with them.

В отличие от многих занятий каллиграфией, этот класс ведет профессиональный японский каллиграф. Помимо того, что вы научитесь писать слова по своему выбору, у вас также будет редкий шанс стать свидетелем эстетической точности живой демонстрации каллиграфии, что даст вам настоящее чувство «ва» (和) — концепции, которую японцы лелеют с древних времен.

What makes this activity special is the use of 'onsen' (hot spring) water direct from Beppu's water sources, in order to create natural colour variations that cannot be found elsewhere. Far more than just about dyeing fabric, the experience offers a chance to discover Beppu’s rich hot spring culture through colour and imagination. Unlike typical craft workshops, this is deeply connected to the land and traditions of Beppu, making for meaningful memories to take home with you. Whether you're travelling solo, with friends or with family, this activity offers a peaceful and personal way to connect with a truly special aspect of Japanese culture.
