About the event
JSB members are invited to a private viewing of fusuma/shoji craftsmen from Japan!
The Boston Children's Museum will have two craftsmen from Seikodo Nakajima Co. in Kyoto to repair the fusuma and shoji screens at their Kyo no Machiya, or traditional merchant Kyoto style house.
During the private viewing, members will be able to observe the craftsmen working, ask questions, and listen to the history of the Machiya house as well. It will be followed by a small related craft workshop.
Space is limited for this event. If you are not a JSB member, you can sign up to become one here.
