In this engaging and hands-on class, students had the opportunity to explore the traditional art of Japanese calligraphy. Equipped with authentic brushes, ink, and paper, they experimented with different strokes and writing techniques, immersing themselves in a practice that blends precision, creativity, and mindfulness.
The session encouraged students to slow down and focus on the form and flow of each character, offering a refreshing break from typical classroom routines. As they dipped their brushes into ink and watched the strokes take shape on the page, many found the experience both calming and inspiring.
Beyond just practicing writing, the class offered a window into the cultural depth behind Japanese script. Students gained a deeper appreciation for the aesthetics, discipline, and history embedded in this timeless art form.
It was a unique and memorable experience that sparked curiosity and creativity, leaving everyone looking forward to more cultural explorations in the future.
