Batik is both an art and a craft, which is becoming ever more popular and well known among contemporary artists all over the world, as a wonderfully creative medium. The art of decorating cloth using wax and dye has been practiced for centuries in many parts of the world including China, Japan, India, South America, and Europe. Guest Art instructor, Jacqui Tran, will demonstrate the authentic method she was trained in while living in Malaysia. Following her demonstration, students will create a batik using age-appropriate techniques.
