Description

28 September @ 2:00 PM

Join us for a mixed-media workshop led by artist Bettina Kulakowski, combining embroidery on canvas with reverse coffee painting. Working with subtle coffee washes as a tonal ground and precise stitched lines, you will explore how thread can translate rhythm, clarity, and balance in architectural forms.

Taking Bassam Freiha Art Foundation as your muse, you will study façade, light, and shadow, rendering them through texture and line. Beginner-friendly, with thoughtful challenges for experienced stitchers.

Suitable for beginners and creatives of all levels, all materials will be provided, and we recommend registering early to secure your spot. We look forward to welcoming you for a creative afternoon!
