In our culture of big-box stores, it’s always nice to support local businesses. Not only will you help out members of your community, but you’ll find unique items that you’d be hard-pressed to find at a national chain. Check out Wabi Sabi, a unique Japanese gift shop in Bend.
Wabi Sabi is a shop unlike any other you'll find in Oregon. It specializes in all things Japanese - from candy to fine art, and if you're looking for a unique gift, this is the place to go.
The shop carries tons of books in all kinds of Japanese subjects, including the bonsai, origami, Japanese traditions, cooking, manga, Japanese language books, and more.
Wabi Sabi also hosts events throughout the month. Pokemon fans will love to get together for card play and tournaments. You'll also want to check out the Super Smash Bros. play sessions, Rubik's Cube Club, Japanese lessons, and more.
