Meet your guide at the Hachiko Statue and take a short walk to a kokeshi speciality shop, passing through the famous Shibuya Scramble Crossing and Center-gai street. Upon arrival, be surrounded by hundreds of beautiful kokeshi dolls lining the walls from floor to ceiling. Learn about their rich history and cultural significance from your knowledgeable guide before picking up a brush. Originating in the Tohoku region of Japan, kokeshi have been crafted by skilled artisans for centuries — each one unique, each one telling a storey. Paint your own kokeshi doll with traditional tools — all skill levels welcome! Whether you prefer a bold modern design or a traditional kokeshi pattern, the choice is entirely yours. Enjoy a complimentary matcha latte or green tea, both made using traditional methods, while you create. Once complete, receive a handwritten kanji name card as a special gift and sign the bottom of your doll in kanji, with your guide walking you through the correct stroke order. Polish your doll with wax for a beautiful shine, take a memorable photo surrounded by the stunning kokeshi collection, and leave with your packaged kokeshi — a perfect, personal souvenir from Japan.
