Crane & Turtle's 1 Year Anniversary!

  • Crane & Turtle 1 Bow Market Way Somerville, MA, 02143 United States (map)

In celebration of Crane & Turtle's first anniversary, they will be offering yukata rentals to the public to dress up, join a photoshoot, and hang out around Bow Market in style. Yukata are summer kimono, made of cotton and often worn at festivals across Japan.

Never tried a kimono or yukata? Crane & Turtle’s got you! You can reserve a spot for yukata dressing by a professional kimono dresser, Seiko Kitagawa.

Crane & Turtle will make sure that you’ll be dressed in it well, the proper way, so that you’re ready to enjoy it outside! (Already have a yukata of your own? First of all, hi. Let's hang out. Secondly, feel free to wear it to the party!)

There’ll be a photo session space with backdrop, right next to the dressing room, and Adam Erdossy, a professional photographer, to take the photos (optional). You can also take as many photos as you like in the market during the yukata rental.

Oh, and here's another incentive to wear yukata (besides looking supremely cute and / or handsome): anyone wearing a yukata on the day of the party (July 11th) will receive 10% off any purchase.
