18 to 19 Apr 2026 9.30 am - 4.30 am

Come and discover the Magic of Batik with international Batik artist, Rosi Robinson. Batik is a traditional Far Eastern resist technique of decorating fabric, using wax and dyes. You will learn how to apply hot liquid wax with traditional and contemporary waxing tools; how to mix colors; and how to apply washes of colorful dyes to fabric and paper. You will learn how to build up a design starting with the lightest color, building up to the darkest, how to create textures and how to remove wax at the end of the process to reveal a beautiful textured design or picture.
