Chinese Cultural Experience ”Chinese Knotting”(Subsidized by SenTIA)

The Sendai International Friendship Club will be hosting a workshop where one could try tying Chinese knots.

Through hosting cultural exchange events, the Sendai International Friendship Club hopes to promote mutual respect between people of different nationalities and ethnicities.
This workshop is dedicated to Chinese knotting.

Chinese knotting is a folk art developed during the Tang Dynasty in China. By tying two ropes tightly together, it is said to symbolize the concept of eternity.
In China, these knots can be found in traditional wedding ceremonies, lunar new year celebrations, and other auspicious occasions.

Let’s learn to tie Chinese knots and wish for eternal happiness and peace.
Everyone is welcome to participate in our event. (Foreign residents and school-age children are also welcome)
We look forward to seeing you at the event!

Please note that our organization’s workshops are not taught by professional instructors.
