Family Sunday: Finding Beauty in Broken

Event Description

Join us for a Family Sunday focusing on our exhibition, Beauty of Mending: Kintsugi and Beyond!
This exhibition, featuring the work of "ceramic therapist", Naoko Fukumaru, shows us how something broken can be transformed into a work of art. This theme will run through all of our art making this Family Sunday, whether it’s playing with “accidental” brushstrokes, trying your hand at stitching on fabric patches, artistically mending hand made clay structures, or painting rich colours on creased rice paper. Everything has beauty, once we learn how to see it.
