More Details

Established in 1889 as the Art-Crafts Course (including metal and Urushi works) of the Tokyo Arts School, the Department of Crafts was reorganized in 1975 into an institution offering both basic and specialized knowledge in the following areas of study: Metal Carving, Metal Hammering, Metal Casting, Urushi-Art (Japanese Lacquer), Ceramics, and Textile Arts. The Woodworking and Glass courses were established in 1995 and 2005, respectively. From 2018, Woodworking was reorganized into Urushi-Art (Urushi-Art & Woodworking), and Glass into Ceramics (pottery & porcelain & Glass), and the university started offering undergraduate education in Woodworking and Glass as well. Furthermore, Woodworking and Glass were merged to establish Material Arts (Woodworking & Glass) from 2022, which will promote education and research mainly at the Toride Campus. The Department of Crafts seeks to train artists capable of assimilating the sets of values and the technologies of a contemporary society that continues to fragment and diversify through instruction in basic techniques that permit each individual to develop his or her talents. We seek to develop creativity and practical skills by offering personalized instruction through a small group policy that focuses on the creation of craft objects. The Department of Crafts also works to enhance international exchange and regional cooperation through social and research activities imbued with the spirit of the department. Location: 12-8 Uenokoen, Taito City, Tokyo 110-0007
