International Lampwork Festa |Kobe earthquake 10 years ago - We are opening the international event festa for lampwork in Kobe Japan, where people experienced the Kobe earthquake 10 years ago. Japanese and international leading artists are invited to introduce the charm of lampwork through demonstrations and exhibitions to bring us the beacon of hope, symbolizing the rebirth and rebuilding of Kobe city for the future. This event is to be as international as Kobe city itself, and to be a joyful communication space for the public, not only for lampwork professionals. This 3 day event will bring you joy as you : MEET, DISCOVER, LEARN and CREATE. We are looking forward to meeting all of you. We are now in the rapid process of making our official web site.

Arigatoo Gozaimasu!
Your work has been a huge source of inspiration for me. I have been studying Japanese in preparation of visiting my girlfriend's home. I have always had a strong appreciation for japanese culture and art. I would be honored to visit your studio and possibly take a class with you in Nara. I just held one of your tonbodama for the first time. It gave me murrini butterflies in my stomach.
