To celebrate the New Year, The Gallery at Flat Rock will host a traditional Japanese Mochitsuki ceremony, which involves making mochi, a delicious sweet or savory rice cake. This event is offered through the WNC Japanese Cultural Center, an organization dedicated to sharing aspects of traditional Japanese culture.
Inside the gallery will be kimono for women, men, and children to try on and have your photo taken. There will also be a calligraphy demonstration and origami folding.
We ask that you contribute $5 to help cover the cost of this event. All proceeds go to the Japanese Cultural Center.
