Event Overview:
Discover the mindful art of Japanese ink painting in this beginner-friendly Sumi-e experience.
Rooted in Zen philosophy, Sumi-e focuses on simplicity, flow, and capturing the spirit of nature with every brushstroke. Guided by a live instructor, you’ll explore traditional materials, learn brush-handling techniques, and create your own bamboo-inspired masterpiece using soft gradients of ink. Along the way, enjoy a calming, culturally enriching session perfect for team connection, creativity, and relaxation—no prior art experience needed.
*Please note: For bookings with less than 12 guests, kindly note that an additional facilitation fee of $200 will apply. Event customization and pre-event calls are available by request.
*Disclaimer: Hosts and instructors may not represent the culture featured in the workshop. Cultural representation is based on availability, but all facilitators are trained to lead inclusive and respectful experiences.
*Hybrid participation requires access to a laptop (Zoom), microphone, and TV/projector, so on-site guests can see, hear, and join the virtual instructor in real time. Any additional materials or setup details will be communicated before the event.
