The Experience

We have been building a center for serious study for pottery and Japanese culture, by hand. Our focus now is building the structure and manual; a clear role for people helps us run the house, kitchen, outdoor maintenance. We hope for: someone who likes supporting a thing and finds the supporting itself worthwhile; someone who is happy to fill their own time with reading, drawing, walking in the forest. We offer nature, safe place, and quiet.
