Crafty Party with Hiromi Tango

Inspired by her remarkable residency, 花弁 Hanabira (Gentle Petal) join artist Hiromi Tango for a very special Crafty Party that celebrates healing and joy.

For one night only, we welcome you into the exuberant world of Hiromi Tango, a vibrant celebration of colour and sculptural form. During this special workshop, you'll explore Hiromi's study of cyclical peptides, a miracle of a natural medicine which will help inspire you to sculpt bold organic shapes. Using special weaving techniques, Hiromi will guide you through turning pre-loved silks and materials into a wearable piece of art.

At the end of the workshop Hiromi will invite you to stay on for a gentle celebration with the group, full of music and joy.

Workshop Includes:

1. 2.5 Hour Artist-Led workshop by Hiromi Tango
2. A glass of bubbles thanks to our friends at Symphony Hill Wines or a soft drink
3. Nibbles
4. All materials provided

Please note: To make your work truly special, attendees are encouraged to bring along a piece of fabric/string/ribbon that holds special significance to them to incorporate into their creation.

We respectfully acknowledge Warunghu, Aunty Raelene Baker’s insight, conversation and participation in developing this project. We thank Molly Green for her commitment, generosity and contribution.
