In Kyoto, Em and I were fortunate to take a shuro brush making workshop with Misawa-san, a brush maker from Kobe. I found POJ Studio while looking into their woodworking apprenticeship program, but like many other opportunities, it conflicted with the Mt. Fuji course. Through that search, I learned that POJ also offers brush making workshops at their Kyoto location, and so I signed us up.
