“Very organised and well structured class to learn the basics of modern Kintsugi and its reference in Japanese culture. Will be doing the 2-day course as well.”
“Hitomi and Jun were excellent teachers who were encouraging and available to answer any questions. They showed a lot of attention to detail with the setup to make it as easy as possible for new learners. They even surprised us with a tea break with Japanese treats which was just the pick me up we needed. The venue has free, street parking which was easy to find. Highly recommend as a treat for family and friends or yourself.”
“Kintsugi is becoming more well-known in Australia and this workshop is the perfect place to experiment with this beautiful craft. Hitomi and Jun have spent years perfecting their technique and have set up each step of the workshop carefully to ensure participants can maximise their time and have a genuine hands-on experience. I especially loved the history lesson about kintsugi. Highly recommend this workshop”
“I attended the Kintsugi Workshop for Beginners with Jun and Hitomi in Brisbane. I would definitely encourage true beginners to feel confident in attending this course. No prior knowledge is required and Hitomi and Jun were always there to help us if and when we needed it. I feel proud of what I achieved in this course. I have a whole new skill I can practise at home. I bought a prepared pack of all the tools and equipment we used. It was very reasonably priced and I know I have everything I need to enjoy Kintsugi at home with my sister, who also attended the course. A truly grest experience. Thank you Jun and Hitomi.”
“The Kintsugi class was even better than we expected! I really enjoyed hearing the full story of Kintsugi, and the process itself was very clearly explained as we went along. A wonderful experience!”
“Amazing art form - coupled with knowledgeable instructors and great instructions, made for a worthwhile workshop. Definitely recommended if you have an interest in repairing/fixing ceramics, wanting a meditative activity or picking up a new hobby!”
“I loved this class. I was already familiar with kintsugi having lived in Japan many years ago. Learning from Japanese teachers is always the best as they understand the craft and it’s background so well. They were very helpful and always gave clear instructions. Will be back to learn more”
