Celebrate the season of renewal with a joyful day filled with vibrant cultural experiences for all ages!Kokeshi are traditional Japanese wooden dolls, first created in the Tohoku region over 150 years ago. Known for their simple cylindrical bodies and beautifully hand-painted designs, Kokeshi represent wishes for children’s health, happiness, and protection.
