Zajęcia Shibori w MUZEUM SHIBORI W KIOTO

The process for folding and dyeing the fabric is amazing. The shop is spacious and there is a museum on the second floor that explains the history and tools that were used. This is a family owned business. They are very friendly and speak English. also, across the street on the main road is Nijo castle (massive structure) with gardens and sightseeing spots. It similarly to the imperial palace in Tokyo. If you are visiting this place which I highly recommend then checkout the castle as well. I’m grateful and glad that I experienced this place and got to meet the Son, father, and grandfather. They are very kind. I’m definitely coming back again

an unforgettable experience .. something you should not miss .. an amazing artform that is slowly getting lost .. .. the class is well worth the time and money .. and the scarf you get to take home is just beautiful .. Cannot recommend this enough

This is one of the best things I did on my trip to Kyoto. The practice of Shibori is so intricate and interesting; they show you how to make your own, and then while it’s being steamed, you get to view the whole museum upstairs, including a video on the history and process of Shibori over the years. The work in the museum is gorgeous, and the staff are so friendly and willing to share about this activity. Highly recommend if you want something cultural that you can take with you!

Every single staff member was so lovely, knowledgeable, and helpful. This made both the process of creating my own Shibori scarf, as well as visiting the museum very enjoyable.

10/10 would go again. The museum director is amazing and the language barrier wasn't an issue with the gesticulation and his enthusiasm. The class was so nice and stress free, with such an easy to learn process. The meseum truly shows how much Shibori is an amazing art technique with immeasurable skill involved.

One of the best things we did in Kyoto! I would highly recommend this to anyone in the area - the instructors were helpful and explained things well. Afterwards you are able to go into the upstairs museum and learn more about the history of Shibori which I also recommend. We did did this class first thing in the morning, then walked just a few minutes to Nijo-Jo Castle - so if you are planning to visit the castle while your in Kyoto, this would be a great addition to that!

Such a fun class to take! The instructors and staff are so nice, vibrant and friendly! They are so passionate about teaching the history of shibori. The museum and shop have been in the family for three generations, it’s beautiful. The museum walk through is a visual delight and so informing of the painstaking work that goes into the detail of this art. 110% recommend this, can’t say enough great things about it! :D

Die Buchung hat bestens geklappt, wir wurden vor Ort erwartet. Für uns 2 Stand uns eine Instruktorin zur Verfügung welche sich gut auf Englisch mit uns verständigen konnte. Alle Arbeitsschritte wurden gut erklärt und überwacht. Auf mögliche Verbrennungen beim Eintauchen in die heissen Farben wurden wir hingewiesen und auch beim arbeiten überwacht. Das Ergebnis ist super geworden. Die beiden Schals wurden uns am Schluss gebügelt und in Klarsichtfolie verpackt übergeben. Der Kurs hat uns Freude gemacht und wir haben nun ein selbst gemachtes Souvenir aus Japan.

This was an incredible experience in Kyoto! The instructors provide clear, enthusiastic instruction, allowing you to pick between one of several shibori techniques to create your piece. It was a friendly, intimate atmosphere that is sure to be a highlight of your Kyoto trip (especially if you're a fiber artist or crafting fan). I must also shout out the special "opening ceremony" after the dye is complete - where you can shoot a video of unfolding your masterpiece. The artisans and staff have created a truly special experience here. The museum exhibitions upstairs are worth a visit too! The exhibit offers an English language video explaining the techniques of traditional shibori art, and beautiful masterworks of each technique on display. Don't hesitate, book this today!

Itvis just a fantastic experience!! the teachers are very nice, they speak very god English, they help you a loth to make your artwork!! the exhibition is beautiful, amazing pieces!! I am very thankful that I participated on this workshop, thank you so much!! ❤️
