It is open to joining from elementary school age. Of course, as a "place" for learning, joining by an adult alone is also welcome.
The first session on April 28 will be "small pot of tea tree made with Uji ceramic clay".

We will give you the finished small pot together with our original text on how to grow a tea tree in the small pot we have prepared for you.
