Most of these start with a calligraphy lesson, then print your best character onto a T-shirt or tote to take home. Choose your kanji with the teacher’s help, since a word that looks great on a shirt can mean something odd. The Asakusa and Skytree ones slot neatly into a day in that area.
Discover Tokyo’s calligraphy art and create your own T-shirt in this engaging workshop led by a professional. Perfect for art lovers and culture seekers.
