90 minute workshop
an introduction to kintsugi
Lead by our in-house kintsugi experts, we will guide your group through understanding the different materials used during kintsugi and performing the final stage of repair. Throughout this session, participants will apply metallic powder to a pre-prepared, ceramic vessel.
If you would like to host a kintsugi workshop at POJ Studio, we can fit a comfortable 8 and a maximum of 12 participants.
If you would like to host a workshop at your own chosen location, we can accommodate a maximum of 20 participants.
All necessary workshop materials will be provided by POJ Studio.
2-day retreat
an immersive experience
Throughout four sessions, across two days, your group will learn about the art form's history, ecology, and philosophy. This will provide participants with a foundational understanding of Kintsugi's context and ability to approach the traditional art form with intention.
Ideal for experiencing a full Kintsugi repair in a short amount of time, this experience will take you start-to-finish from broken to repaired ware with golden finish.
Hosted at your own chosen location, each session is lead by one of POJ Studio’s expert instructors. We will provide all necessary kintsugi materials, including Tsutsumi Asikichi-made urushi.
The hosting group is responsible for venue and meal coordination.
