Did you know that Japan has a rainy season each year? In Japanese, it is called tsuyu (梅雨), a word made up of the characters for "plum" (梅) and "rain" (雨).
Join us at this event to find out more about the culture - traditional and modern - surrounding this time of year, as well as to try your hand at making some crafts associated with the rainy season.
Note: if you are unsure of when this event will take place in your time zone, please use this online convertor to check.
*On the day, we may split into groups to try different kinds of crafts. If you don't get the chance to try everything you want to, don't worry: we will provide a handy guide so you can have a go at it yourself after the event.
You will need a couple of basic items for the crafts section such as a pair of scissors, some kitchen paper (or a piece of fabric), one or two coloured pens and some paper (ideally coloured). We will provide specific instructions in advance.
