Kintsugi workshop (using modern method)
Description
Embrace the concept of healing & repair with Kintsugi - the Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics with gold. The class is taught by artist and teacher Louise Gridley, Sugi Ceramics. In this workshop you will repair a broken ceramic item and apply gold pigment to highlight and celebrate the restored fragments. This adult workshop is for all abilities - no prior experience necessary! Older teens also welcome. Bring your own small ceramic item (to your taste!) to repair.
