  The Japanese Canadian Legacies Society (JCLS) is supporting EJCA Calligraphy Club for the project titled “EJCA Calligraphy Club – Funding for Master Calligrapher and Calligraphy classes.”

  The Project is to invite Calligraphy teacher, Ms. Shidehara, and her assistant, Ms. Tai, from Japan to Edmonton to conduct two types of workshops:          (1) workshops for club members, (2) workshops for EJCA members.

  The JCLS Community Projects stream seeks to support community-led projects that promote Japanese or Japanese Canadian culture or opportunities for Japanese Canadians to connect with each other and/or their culture or identity. 

  Accordingly, the Calligraphy Club offers two workshops for the EJCA members to experience Japanese Calligraphy. 

  Title:             Experience a Wonderful World of Calligraphy

  You will learn basics of Calligraphy and practice several Kanji. Your final product will be on Kami Noren for you to take home. No experience in Calligraphy or the Japanese Language is required, though they are assets.

  Date/Time: Tuesday, October 15, 2024

                          Session 1: 5:00 – 6:30 pm (Maximum 10 attendees)

                          Session 2: 7:00 – 8:30 pm (Maximum 10 attendees)

  Location:    EJCA Centre, Lounges 1 & 2

  Instructor: Ms. Ranko Shidehara

  Fees:             $20 including rental of Calligraphy tools (brushes, ink pot, paper weight, under pads), Kami-Noren (for displaying your work, the graphic of the event title is Kami-Noren), consumables (sumi, practice paper & rice paper)

  Registration deadline: When all 20 seats are reserved or September 30, 2024
