SUMMARY:Mizuhiki: Japanese Decorative Knots – Autumn Leaf Knot
DESCRIPTION:For our Mizuhiki class on October 18th\, you will tie the leaf knot and turn it into a bookmark or a brooch for autumn. \nMizuhiki has been woven into Japanese life for centuries\, most familiarly as the decorative cord that adorns gifts and envelopes for weddings\, celebrations and other important occasions. Made from washi\, it is a remarkably versatile material: a simple paper cord that can be tied\, shaped and transformed into intricate forms. \nThis October you will explore the graceful form of the leaf knot\, a relatively simple design and a natural next step after the basic awaji knot. In Japan autumn is celebrated as a season for both reading and personal style\, and the leaf knot suits either: you will make a delicate bookmark or a brooch inspired by the colours and the quiet beauty of autumn foliage. An earring option is available in place of the brooch. \nChoose colours drawn from autumn leaves\, or your own combination in shades you love. Through the simple act of tying and shaping mizuhiki\, you will discover how a few paper cords become a small work of art — something to wear\, to carry\, or to keep close as the season unfolds. \nPlease let us know which you would like to make — bookmark\, brooch or earrings — when you register\, or email class@resobox.com. If you are not sure\, you can decide on the day. \nNo experience is necessary\nAll materials are included\nTake home the piece you make \nTaught by Satoi Adams of Mizuhiki Global Links. Space is limited\, so early registration is recommended. \n\n\n$60 / person \nAll materials included \n\nReserve Your Spot \n\nPLEASE NOTE: Registration closes 2 hours before the session. Cancellations made within 72 hours of the session are nonrefundable. \n\nLearn more about the Mizuhiki class at RESOBOX \nView class page

SUMMARY:Nerikiri Wagashi: Japanese Sculpted Confectionery – Autumn Maple Leaves\, Flower Basket\, and Temari
DESCRIPTION:The instructor: Yuki Sakura \nIn this session\, we will create three nerikiri designs inspired by the beauty and quiet delight of late autumn: momiji (autumn maple leaves)\, hanakago (flower basket)\, and temari (traditional thread ball). As October comes to an end\, the season is filled with warm colors and gentle transitions. Maple leaves glow in deep reds and golds\, flower baskets carry the softness of lingering seasonal blooms\, and the temari is designed with patterns and shades inspired by the rich colors of autumn\, capturing both elegance and playful charm. \nThis workshop offers more than the joy of tasting Wagashi — it gives you the experience of creating edible art with your own hands. Simple hand movements such as pressing\, pinching\, and layering transform into moments of artistic expression. Through this hands-on experience\, you will discover the unique beauty of Japanese food culture. \nAt the end of the class\, you’ll take home the nerikiri sweets you lovingly crafted yourself. I hope you’ll share them with your family and friends\, revisiting the stories and moments from the workshop as you admire and enjoy the sweets you created with your own hands. \n  \n\n\n$90 / person \nAll materials included \n\nReserve Your Spot \n\nPLEASE NOTE: Registration closes 48 hours before the session.

SUMMARY:Kazari Maki Zushi: Decorative Sushi Roll – Jack-o'-Lantern & Frankenstein
DESCRIPTION:Halloween\, rolled. \nIn this hands-on workshop you’ll roll two designs from the world of kazari maki zushi\, Japan’s art of decorative sushi: a grinning jack-o’-lantern and a green-faced Frankenstein’s monster. Slice the roll and the face is there — all the way through\, in every piece. \nEvery color comes from food. Carrot turns the rice pumpkin-orange\, aonori (dried green seaweed flakes) makes the monster’s face green\, bonito furikake darkens his hair\, nori draws the outlines\, and cheese\, cucumber and fish sausage fill in the faces. No dyes\, nothing you can’t eat. \nIt looks complicated. It isn’t. Kazari maki zushi is built in parts and then assembled — closer to stacking building blocks than to making sushi — so no experience is needed. Chef Hiroyo Belmonte\, who holds a Level 1 instructor certification in decorative sushi from the Japan Sushi Instructors Association (JSIA)\, walks you through every step. \nWe start at 11am on Halloween morning and finish by 12:30\, so you have the whole of October 31st still ahead of you. Take your rolls home to show off\, or eat them right there. Both are correct. \nWhat the workshop looks like\nPhotos from past Kazari Maki Zushi workshops at RESOBOX. The designs change each session — October 31st is the jack-o’-lantern and Frankenstein. \n\n\n\nWhat you’ll make: A jack-o’-lantern roll and a Frankenstein roll\nIngredients: Sushi rice\, nori seaweed\, carrot\, cucumber\, inari (seasoned fried tofu pouch)\, aonori (dried green seaweed flakes)\, cheese\, fish sausage\, bonito furikake (rice seasoning)\, mayonnaise\nSkill Level: Beginner-friendly. No sushi experience needed.\nWhat to Bring: Nothing — all ingredients and tools are provided. Wear clothes you don’t mind getting a little messy\, or bring an apron.\nBefore the Workshop: Please keep your nails short and remove rings and bracelets from your hands and wrists.\nAllergens: This session uses fish (fish sausage\, bonito flakes)\, wheat and soy (the fish sausage contains wheat gluten and soy protein; inari is made from soy)\, egg (mayonnaise) and dairy (cheese). Please let us know in advance if you have a food allergy. \nPLEASE NOTE: Registration closes 4 hours before the session. Cancellations made within 72 hours of the session are nonrefundable. \n\n\n$80 / person \nAll ingredients and tools included \n\nReserve Your Spot \n\n  \n\nLearn more about the Kazari Maki Zushi class at RESOBOX \nView class page → \n

SUMMARY:Virtual Ikebana class – Misho Style
DESCRIPTION:Classes will be held via the Zoom Video Conferencing application\, a private Zoom link will be sent to participants before the class begins. The classes will be held in Eastern Time. \n  \nA few things you will need before the class: \n1. You will need to find your own flowers. We are sorry that we are unable to deliver flowers to your home (try calling around; some local shops will deliver). But any flowers are OK! Just make sure to get 2-3 varieties\, and choose what you like. We don’t need a lot. \n2. You will need clippers or scissors that you don’t mind using to cut flower stems. \n3. A vase. If you don’t have a vase\, you can use a glass\, a coffee cup\, a cereal bowl\, or your choice of container\, as long as it has a little depth. You might even surprise yourself with how nice a non-traditional vase can look with a cute arrangement of flowers. \n*If you have your own Kenzan\, Flower Pin\, or Pin Frog\, you can use it. And if you want to buy one\, you can order on Amazon online. \nIn this class\, we will check each student’s tools and flowers\, then help you with tips on how to build up and create your own Ikebana arrangement. \n  \n\n\n$30 / person \nMaterials not included — please bring your own (see the list above) \n\nReserve Your Spot \n\nPLEASE NOTE: Registration closes 24 hours before the session.

SUMMARY:Iei: A Portrait of the Life You Are Living
DESCRIPTION:November 5 & 6 · Reserve your time between 11:00 am and 6:50 pm \nIn Japan\, more and more people are choosing their own funeral portrait while they are still alive. \nAn iei is the portrait placed at a Japanese funeral\, the image by which a person is remembered. Traditionally chosen in a hurry by family\, it is increasingly something people choose themselves: a portrait that shows who they are\, taken on their own terms.

SUMMARY:Mizuhiki: Japanese Decorative Knots – Memento Mori Jewelry
DESCRIPTION:In Japan\, the knot on an envelope says what words cannot. \nMizuhiki are fine cords made of twisted washi paper\, tied into knots that decorate gifts and envelopes for life’s turning points. They also appear at funerals and memorial services: black-and-white or silver knots adorn the condolence envelopes offered to the bereaved. Some knots are tied so that they can never be undone. On a condolence envelope\, this carries the wish that such sorrow will never be repeated; at a wedding\, the same knot stands for a bond that lasts. \nIn this workshop\, mizuhiki instructor Satoi Adams\, who has taught in Boston\, New York\, and Tokyo since 2018\, guides you through the basic knots and their meanings. You will make your own mizuhiki accessory to take home. \nNo experience necessary\nAll materials included\nLimited to 12 participants\nAdmission ticket required (sold separately) \nThis workshop is part of Memento Mori in NYC: The Art of Japanese Life and Death\, November 5–6 at RESOBOX. For the full program\, please visit the official website: mementomori-nyc.com \n\n\n$50 / person \nAll materials included · Admission ticket sold separately \nAt checkout\, select “November 5th at 5 pm (Memento Mori festival)” \n\nReserve Your Spot \n\nPLEASE NOTE: Registration closes 24 hours before the session.

SUMMARY:Virtual Ikebana class - Misho Style
DESCRIPTION:Classes will be held via the Zoom Video Conferencing application\, a private Zoom link will be sent to participants before the class begins. The classes will be held in Eastern Time. \n  \nA few things you will need before the class: \n1. You will need to find your own flowers. We are sorry that we are unable to deliver flowers to your home (try calling around; some local shops will deliver). But any flowers are OK! Just make sure to get 2-3 varieties\, and choose what you like. We don’t need a lot. \n2. You will need clippers or scissors that you don’t mind using to cut flower stems. \n3. A vase. If you don’t have a vase\, you can use a glass\, a coffee cup\, a cereal bowl\, or your choice of container\, as long as it has a little depth. You might even surprise yourself with how nice a non-traditional vase can look with a cute arrangement of flowers. \n*If you have your own Kenzan\, Flower Pin\, or Pin Frog\, you can use it. And if you want to buy one\, you can order on Amazon online. \nIn this class\, we will check each student’s tools and flowers\, then help you with tips on how to build up and create your own Ikebana arrangement. \n  \n\n\n$30 / person \nMaterials not included — please bring your own (see the list above) \n\nReserve Your Spot \n\nPLEASE NOTE: Registration closes 24 hours before the session. Cancellations made within 72 hours of the session are nonrefundable. \n\nLearn more about Virtual Ikebana class at RESOBOX \nView class page →
