Patricia Belyea and Victoria Stone, co-owners of Okan Arts, invite you to join them on their 2026 Blue Japan Indigo Tour to give you, "a more in-depth understanding of indigo, as well as memories for a lifetime." What does that include? Well, here's just a small sampling of the adventures you'll go on: "You venture into the mountains to dye indigo at a 13th-generation family business that makes huge koinobori. You go behind the scenes at a banner factory to dye a koi wall hanging. You tour an indigo farm in Tokushima Prefecture. You make paper embellished with indigo at a famous washi factory. You wander Kojima Jeans Street, the heart of Japanese denim. And more!"
