Papermaking and printmaking tour in Japan

The Educational Study Trip III in Japan (February 2010)

The Third Educational Study Trip is taken place in Japan in February
2010, arranged with ViaJapan Holidays (UK). The trip consists of 11

Objectives for this trip are to provide the opportunity to
understand Japanese papermaking and printmaking. The participants
will acquire deep understanding of (1) the characteristics of
Japanese paper through a papermaking workshop and visits to
different papermaking mills and 2) Japanese woodblock printing
techniques and materials (e.g. use of Japanese paper) through a
workshop. The tour also includes various paper/print related visits
and provides a unique experience in Japanese culture by travelling
around countryside.
