make your own gifts-mixed arts | dec 5 9-3pm | san diego
For this creative escape, we will explore two techniques making waves on social media right now: Paper lantern making and the Japanese art of Kinusaiga!
During the first part of the day, you will design and create your own paper lantern. After a delicious lunch together (provided!), we will discover Kinusaiga, a fascinating fabric art technique that transforms colorful pieces of fabric into a beautiful picture by tucking them into grooves, without a needle or thread.
