5 – 6PM
The yatate — a brush and an ink-pot joined in a single small case, worn at the waist — traveled everywhere with the writers and merchants of Edo and Meiji Japan. This summer, The Nippon Club welcomes calligrapher Mohri Suzuki from Japan for an exhibition on the yatate and the culture of writing.
An intimate tour among the works, from the Maruyama yatate to the living practice of calligraphy today.
