About the Event

Ever fancied creating your own pattern on fabric? Batik is a technique of wax-resist dyeing and this workshop will show you the basics of the technique!

The applied wax resists dyes allowing you to play with colour without it running into other parts of the design. During this workshop you will practice using the tjanting tool, draw and wax your own design and then utilise dyes to colour your master piece which will be framed to take home.
