Pottery lesson in Furano by "Chokkura Tabi" - Special Local Tour

Enjoy taking part in a pottery lesson and having a specially cooked lunch using local vegetables.

A ceramic artist, Yasutaka OTSUKI, teaches you how to produce original work using hand forming methods as well as an electric potter’s wheel at Noragama kiln which is located in a rural area. Coffee and sweets are served.

After finishing the class, a daily lunch will be served using seasonal local vegetables specially made by Café Nora next to the workshop.

It will take about 4 months for your project to be finished, so the work will be delivered by post (extra fee).
