Mindful Japanese art of mending to give a new life to broken pottery.

Kintsugi is a century-old Japanese craftwork where broken ceramic objects are pieced back together using Urushilacquer and gold dust based on the philosophy of Wabi Sabi finding beauty in imperfection.

The process transforms much loved, worn items into a beautifully crafted, new piece of art. It is a chance to live a more sustainable way and to rescue objects which would otherwise be discarded.

In this relaxed workshop, you will learn the introductory technique of Art Kintsugi mending following 7 essential steps using modern accessible materials and bring home a piece of your own.

Workshop fee includes all materials and a piece of ceramic to repair and take home
