SUMMARY:Gunpla After School: Gundam Plastic Model Kit Building
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an after-school Gundam Plastic Model (Gunpla) workshop where children dive into the exciting world of model building! In this hands-on program\, students in grades 4–8 learn how to build\, paint\, and customize their own Gunpla models. Kits\, tools\, paints\, and all required materials are provided. \nBuild more than models\nIn this workshop\, students in grades 4–8 don’t just enjoy building—they strengthen spatial reasoning\, basic math and geometry\, and logical problem-solving while bringing 3D designs to life. Guided by an experienced instructor\, kids learn to plan\, measure\, follow precise steps\, and think creatively as they assemble\, paint\, and customize their own kits. Every session blends hands-on making with STEM-aligned skills in a fun\, supportive studio. All tools and materials are provided. \n \nWhat is Gunpla?\nGunpla are plastic model kits based on the iconic mecha characters and machinery from the beloved Gundam anime series. Originating in Japan in the 1980s\, Gunpla quickly gained popularity and spread globally throughout the 1990s. Today\, hundreds of thousands of enthusiasts worldwide enjoy the rewarding hobby of building these intricate models. \nWhat is Gundam?\n \nGundam is a Japanese science fiction media franchise created by Yoshiyuki Tomino and Hajime Yatate. It primarily revolves around giant robots\, or “Mobile Suits\,” that are piloted by humans. The series is renowned for its compelling storylines\, exploration of complex themes such as war\, peace\, and human nature\, and its iconic mechanical designs. Since its debut in 1979\, Gundam has expanded into numerous anime series\, films\, manga\, video games\, and\, of course\, the popular Gunpla model kits. \nSkills Developed\nBuilding Gunpla is more than just a fun activity; it’s a fantastic way for children to develop a variety of valuable skills\, including: \n\nFine motor skills: As they carefully assemble small parts and work with precision tools.\nFocus and attention: Requiring concentration to follow instructions and achieve desired results.\nProblem-solving skills: When encountering challenges during the building or customization process.\nFollowing instructions: Learning to interpret and execute detailed steps.\nPlanning and organization: As they strategize their build and manage components.\nCreativity: Through painting and customizing their models to reflect their unique vision.

SUMMARY:Inami Woodcarving — A 250-Year Living Tradition\, with Master Nambu Hakuun III
DESCRIPTION:Originating in Toyama Prefecture\, Inami woodcarving (井波彫刻) developed in the Edo period during the restoration of the local Zuisen-ji Temple and flourished alongside temple carpentry and the tradition of ranma (transom) carving. Distinguished by extraordinary depth\, precision\, and spiritual artistry\, this 250-year tradition has endured despite the pressures of rapid modernization. Today\, Inami’s artisans apply their mastery\, shaped through a rigorous five-year live-in apprenticeship\,to classical temple work as well as traditional and contemporary commissions. \nThis program begins at 3:00 PM with a screening of the 60-minute documentary Voices in the Grain: Inami Woodcarving\, produced by Poiesis in collaboration with the craftsmen community in Toyama. The film offers a rare and intimate portrait of the carvers\, their history\, and the lived philosophy behind the craft. \nFollowing the screening\, Master Carver Nambu Hakuun III\, one of Inami’s foremost artisans\, will introduce the history of the craft and the lineage of his own workshop\, highlighting major works he has created across Japan. He will then guide the audience through each stage of the carving process\, from sketching on washi paper to rough carving and detailed finishing\, and present his newly created work\, Bridge Between Japan and the U.S.\, which intertwines Japanese and American motifs as a gesture of cultural connection. \nThe demonstration portion will be interactive\, offering attendees the rare opportunity to try carving by hand under the master’s guidance and to handle carving tools used in the craft. \nThe event concludes with an open Q&A\, inviting participants to engage directly with the artist and reflect on the future of this living tradition.
