JapanCraft21

JapanCraft21, based in Kyoto, is devoted to revitalizing traditional Japanese crafts, identifying the challenges faced by Japanese artisans, and implementing solutions for the 21st Century. As part of our mission, we hold an annual Japan Traditional Craft Revitalization Contest, which aims to discover exceptional project ideas from individuals with outstanding talent, track records, and passion; and provide them with a broad and significant support package. Each year, we gather proposals from highly motivated crafts people from all over Japan and choose the most compelling candidates or teams. Enjoy your time exploring the work of our Craft Leaders.
