CPL Arts Collective: Kintsugi Boston (Main)

Join us for a hands-on, beginner-friendly kintsugi workshop led by local artist Tad Murao!

Kintsugi embraces the philosophy of wabi-sabi, highlighting  "imperfections" with metal powders and transforming your broken piece into a unique piece of art.



In this comprehensive 2-hour workshop, you will:

• Explore the history and philosophy of kintsugi
• Learn basic modern kintsugi repair techniques
• Repair a broken ceramic piece with step-by-step guidance

Due to curing time, we'll be using a fast-drying epoxy, allowing you to take your creation home at the end. We advise against using repaired pieces with food.

Please bring:

• One broken ceramic piece (No more than 4 pieces, repairable within 10 inches. Please do not bring family heirlooms or sentimental pieces)
• Container large enough to hold the repaired piece for safe transport

Please note that pieces not meeting these requirements may not be finished during the workshop. If you are unsure about whether your piece is suitable for the workshop, please email us with a description and photo of the  piece you wish to fix at kintsugi.boston@gmail.com Open to ages 18+. Limited spaces available!
