What’s Happening?

Join us for an evening of exploration and learning with our Master Artists. Learn about their work, inspirations, techniques, and the development of their art. Refreshments will be served.  Bring the family or a friend.

Lynne Brotman is a veteran Shibori Artist who will speak on the history of this Japanese art tradition. Follow her down the Tokaido Road to learn when and how Shibori (resist dyeing) was created and progressed. It is now a dying art form in Japan. She will cover the current issues the master Shibori artisans are facing and introduce the artists who are trying to keep it alive. Learn their unique techniques, about their tools and how Shibori is portrayed in Japanese woodblock prints.

A translator will be provided for the hearing-impaired. Additionally, Still Austin will be onsite to provide us with their delicious cocktails.
