The painting experience is a curriculum designed to help participants understand the importance of traditional culture and the customs of Gunma through the creation of the Takasaki Daruma.
After getting an overview of the Daruma doll, participants will watch the teacher's demonstration and then try their hand at painting.
The process takes about 45 minutes, and you can take the completed Daruma doll home with you."
"The Daruma manufacturing process is a very sacred place.
This is because the artisans work tirelessly to make Daruma dolls that fulfill the wishes of everyone who buys one.
For this reason, we normally do not allow visitors to enter or observe the Daruma workshop.
-Things to note-
The place where you can try your hand at painting is the same place where artisans create Daruma dolls with all their heart and soul to make your wishes come true.
At Daruma-no-hometown Daimonya, we offer the painting experience so that as many people as possible can become familiar with Daruma.
However, we will not allow anyone who does not understand the purpose and atmosphere of the event to try painting."
