The Japanese Cultural Festival “BUNKA-SAI'' will be held in Amstelveen again, and Coloratura will also have a stall.
BUNKA-SAI festival will be held by JACOP (Stichting Japanese Communities Platform) at the Nemo Sabo in Amstelveen, and the first event last year was a great success with many visitors. I think this year's event will be even more exciting.
Coloratura have a range of Japanese-style handmade small items and accessories made of clay, as well as flower accessories using Japanese fabrics. I’m preparing various items you can use on a daily basis, such as keychains, bookmarks, magnets, boxes, and decorative items.
There will also be a variety of other shops and events, so please come and visit us. We are looking forward to seeing you at the BUNKA-SAI festival.
《Date and time》 21 October (Saturday) 12:00〜16:00
《Place》 SAKB Kunstlokaal Address: Ouderkerkerlaan 15, 1185 AB Amstelveen
(The Japanese choir group "Sora", in which I am a member, will also sing (from 12:15 to 12:35. I won’t be at the sales table during that time). Please come and listen to us too.
Coloratura offers one-day miniature clay workshops and other handcraft workshops such as Tsumamizaiki (making flower accessories or decorations using Japanese fabrics).. in Amsterdam.
Coloratura also sell handmade miniature clay goods and Japanese style goods such as accessories or ornaments made of Japanese fabrics or Origami papers ..etc. at Sunday markets, Japanese events…
Two years have passed since I came to the Netherlands. It's also been almost two years since I started miniature clay workshops from autumn 2021.

The Japanese cultural festival “BUNKA-SAI” was hold at SAKB (Nemo Sabo) in Amstelveen yesterday and it was a great success with many visitors.
There were many stalls selling Japanese food such as takoyaki, bento boxes, and Japanese sweets, as well as miscellaneous goods, and various performances and workshops were held.
Many Japanese and local people came to my “Coloratura” table.
I am very happy that people are interested in the small size of the miniature clay goods and the gorgeousness of the Japanese-style flower accessories…, and it is also nice to see them happy.
This time, as it was a Japanese event, many local people who speak Japanese well and like Japanese things visited. It was so nice to see these people who are interested in Japan.
