  • Keftwork Studios 3, 128-134 Crown Street Wollongong, NSW, 2500 Australia (map)

Join me at Keftwork Studios in Wollongong.

Join me for an all-day hands-on workshop exploring eco-printing on silk. Across this immersive session, you’ll learn how to prepare your silk, and roll eco-bundles with natural botanicals.
