A Journey Through Japanese Aesthetics: CFSPA × CultureLink at the ROM
About This Event
On June 9, 2026, Canada Five Star (CFSPA), in collaboration with CultureLink, hosted an exclusive Museum Tour & Wellness Watercolour Workshop at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM). Inspired by the Japanese aesthetic concept of "Shokkan" (触感), members explored the beauty of texture, craftsmanship, and sensory experience through remarkable Japanese artifacts. Following the guided tour, participants joined a relaxing Wellness Watercolour Workshop, creating cherry blossom paintings while enjoying a peaceful moment of mindfulness and creativity. The afternoon brought together art, culture, wellness, and meaningful connections. Thank you to everyone who joined us for this memorable experience. Canada Five Star looks forward to creating more inspiring cultural and artistic experiences for our community.
