  1. A look at an ancient art
    Reviewed by: Pamela Levene, 2023/10/09
    Our host and hostess were a delightful couple: one the artisan, one his lovely wife who communicated with us. I had read quite a lot about kintsugi but there is always something new to learn! I was made to feel very welcome, and it was a fascinating experience. I would highly recommend this class.

    The directions to the workshop are clear. Yoshiichiro-san and Yoshiro-san are the sweetest couple ever. I thoroughly enjoyed the step-by-step one day workshop. It was informative, easy to follow and it captured the essence of the concept and art of Kintsugi. I think that Kintsugi really is a beautiful way of thinking and how we can live by embracing imperfections. I would say though, that ...more

  3. Fun for adults and children

    Friendly staff had limited English, but plenty for what we needed to make our parfaits. Fun, not super long, crafting activity that our whole family (including 17 & 11 year olds) enjoyed. They packed the final product amazingly so they made it home with zero damage.

  6. Incredible Experience! Heart warming, fun, and authentic!

    Upon arrival at KUGE crafts we were met by both Yoshiko Kuge and her husband, who were both extremely kind and welcoming. We sat at a shared table and was given a sweet cake, crackers and endless cups of sweet lemon tea. Yoshiko gave us a brief history of Kintsugi and the types of repairs from chips to replacing missing pieces. She shared her experience in how long she has been doing this for and ...more

  7. Wonderful Experience!

    We had a fantastic time with Yoshiko Kuge. She taught us kintsuge while contextualizing its usage as a modern art form and meditative practice. We have beautiful souvenirs and lovely memories thanks to her kindness and generosity.

  8. Two architects and a college student walk into a kintsugi shop…
    Reviewed by: Colin Alley, 2023/09/03
    Our family of three thoroughly enjoyed our two plus hours at Kuge Crafts, working with Yoshiko and Yoshiichiro, and opening ourselves up to the world of Wabi-Sabi - embracing the beauty in imperfection. We highly recommend this experience, and look forward to bringing the skills learned to repairs at home!

  9. Dolphin Encounter with kids
    Reviewed by: MAN, 2023/08/28
    The Dolphin Encounter experience was one that won't be forgetful. This rare time to see dolphins close up was very special for my children and I. My kids are 10 and 6 and they really were amazed with being able to touch the dolphin family. Also having interaction with them by showing our hands and the dolphins doing tricks with what each hand gesture meant. Then we were able to throw rings to see ...more
