- We’ve moved to our new office in Asakusa!
CANVAS moved into our new office in Asakusa on March 3!
Everything—from the shelves lined with various materials and tools to the signs placed throughout the office—is handmade.
The entire staff is hard at work, tools in hand.
It looks like it’ll take a while before everything is neatly organized, but at our new office, we’ve set up a permanent workshop space and
hope to create an environment that excites both children and adults alike!
We hope you’ll continue to support CANVAS—and our brand-new office—in the future!
