“Workshop Caravan” Kicks Off

We are launching the “Workshop Caravan,” a project aimed at expanding opportunities for children to play and learn throughout Japan.

Through this project, we aim to expand opportunities for creative learning across the country by leveraging our nationwide network to plan and organize workshops and events, dispatch instructors, provide workshop programs, and train facilitators—all with the goal of bringing our existing activities to even more children nationwide.

First, we'll be holding an online workshop tour. More on that in a separate post!

I made a website, too.
