Japan Matsuri 2019 Uchiwa Fan Design Contest Winners

Visitors to Japan Society’s Japan Matsuri stall last month were invited to take part in our Uchiwa Fan Design Contest. We were very happy to receive some amazing entries (a selection is posted below), and to see all the effort and hard work that was put into the design and colouring.

We are delighted to announce the winner of the Japan Matsuri 2019 Uchiwa Fan Design Contest is Kasumi! A special mention goes out to the three runners up: Lorna, Maya and Sadie!

Thank you to everyone who took part, we hope you all enjoyed taking part as much as we enjoyed receiving your entries!
