With Yuko Maruo as the instructor, let's make a mascot out of clay to express our feelings in honor of Valentine's Day. On February 2th, we will be welcoming sound artist Hiyama as a guest. Participants will also receive a delicious gift! This is a workshop that uses all five senses. Look forward to it! We are now accepting reservations.

February Workshop
REPORT
We held a workshop! 55 people participated, mostly local children from Karuizawa.
Thanks to the children, the museum was bustling and lively every day.
The expressions on the participants' faces as they concentrated on their creations and the satisfied smiles on their faces when they finished made us feel happy as well, making these two days very rewarding.
Thank you very much to everyone who participated.
Although it was only held in the morning of the 13th, the sound event featuring artist Hiyama was also groundbreaking.
The six mysterious creatures created by Maruo Sensei's characters - Yasshi, Pompon Punpuku, Love Punpuku, Boo, Galvins and Roxano - give the illusion of being truly alive and close to you.
At the end, there was also a chocolate giveaway designed by Maruo Sensei, so there was a lot to enjoy.
It was a workshop that fully engaged the five senses, sensitizing everyone to touch, sight, hearing, taste and even smell.
We aim to create a museum where the children who participate can have an experience that will stay with them even when they become adults.
