Japanese Events at Belmont House

 There are two interesting events coming up at Belmont House.

The first is a Sashiko workshop.  Sashiko is the Japanese style of embroidery, usually done in white on a dark blue background.  This will take place on Sunday 25th February, from 1pm to 4pm, and costs £32.  All the materials to make four coasters will be provided, and the tickets are available from Booth's Bookshop.

On the following Sunday, 3rd March, there will be a Hinamatsuri banquet and tea ceremony.  It is Japanese Girls Day, and is open to ladies only.  The cost is £50, and it begins at 6.30pm.  As Belmont House does not have a drinks license, anyone who would like to have an alcoholic drink with the meal should bring their own drinks.
