Let's make a flower wreath for peace at the Kopaikan, a historic building registered as a Japanese heritage site and the former Navy Red Brick Warehouse! A workshop where you can make a special flower wreath and offer it at Peace Memorial Park to pray for peace.

[Highlights] Flowers are a symbol of peace, and we will make a special flower wreath filled with your thoughts. [Schedule] 13:00 Meet at Peng Paikan Briefing 13:15 Explanation of the history of Peng Paikan (15 minutes) 13:30 Make a flower wreath (60 minutes) 14:30 Make a message and origami crane (15 minutes) 14:45 Cafe time ~ Present a commemorative souvenir (45 minutes) Photographs of the completed work inside Peng Paikan and at Alley Karasukojima Park 15:30 Disband *We will tell you how to offer flowers at Peace Park. [Details] Peng Paikan was one of the red brick warehouses built by the Navy during World War II. After the war, it was used by the occupying forces and managed by Kure City, but it was purchased by a local private company and is loved by locals as a place to tell valuable history. Peng Paikan experienced the war and was at the center of it. I have also experienced a direct bombing. Now that peace has been restored in this place that is a living witness to history, I hope that peace will continue in the future. I will create a special flower wreath using flowers that are a symbol of peace. Daisies, which bloom in spring, are a symbol of peace. A certificate of export permission will be attached and the wreath will be given as a souvenir. I hope that daisies will bloom in many homes, and that this experience of wishing for peace will be remembered widely and for a long time by family and friends who did not actually participate in the workshop. In order to further deepen the feelings of the guests who are the creators, we will also guide you to fold origami cranes, attach a message, and offer flowers at the memorial monument in Peace Park. The sea of Kure is still home to a Self-Defense Force base, and submarines and other vessels are anchored there. On the surface, it may remind you of the war era. However, while inheriting the historical context from the past, the naval port for war has changed into a "port for protecting peace" in modern times. Let's create a special flower wreath in a place where you can feel history and think more deeply about peace. *We will not accompany you, but will teach you how to offer flowers. 〇The only instructor in Chugoku and Shikoku who is a certified professor of the French National Horticultural Association will carefully help you create a flower wreath. 〇We use olives, a symbol of peace. You can also create a special wreath at any time using seasonal flowers. 〇Anyone can offer flowers at the Atomic Bomb Victims Memorial Monument in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park at any time.
