Getting started

Check in at the venue for this local workshop and confirm your booking for the Same-Day Take-Home Shisa Painting Workshop. After a brief orientation in Japanese, you are shown to your seat and given your materials so you can get started without any extra preparation. The session begins once everyone has arrived and is ready to choose their Shisa.

What to expect

Shisa painting workshop

This activity focuses on creating your own Shisa, the traditional Okinawan guardian figure, using a handmade base from Ishigaki Island.

Features

  • Begin by selecting an Unglazed Shisa figure to paint, each one handcrafted on Ishigaki Island so the shape and expression are slightly different for every piece.
  • Use the provided paints, palette and brushes included to add your choice of colors and patterns, creating a Shisa that matches your own idea of a personal charm.
  • Experience fee included means you do not need to pay extra for the workshop tools on the day, and you can join even if you arrive without any art supplies, since you participate on a hand luggage, or “turn up as you are”, basis.
  • Once you finish painting, your Finished Shisa to take home is ready the same day, so solo guests, parents and children can all leave with a one-of-a-kind guardian figure as a keepsake from the session.
