| The Japan Calligraphy Education Foundation, (formerly
Educational Federation), was founded in 1953 (Showa 28) by Harada
Kampo. It was started with the purpose of spreading the spirit embodied
in the phrase, "Correct and beautiful calligraphy based on a spirit of
love." Today it is Japan's largest calligraphy association, with more
than 800,000 members.
