“Batik” translates to “wax writing”. Discover the ancient fiber art of Batik in this immersive workshop! Students will learn to batik on fabrics using hot, melted wax to create a resist and various dye baths to create colors, with a traditional dye dipping method. We will create small Batik designs that can be made into greeting cards for special occasions! Explore this unique artform with our Spring Flowers session or the Autumn Leaves workshop – or both!
All supplies included. All levels welcome, age 16+.
