About this Event
Instructor - Quantum Wei
Quantum first started practicing Kintsugi in 2021 when he wanted to fix a broken souvenir plate (two pieces, epoxy + liquid gold leaf). Since then, he has ventured deeper into the art by working on more complex breaks, and utilizing traditional materials (urushi lacquer), and constructing a muro (wooden curing box). During his latest trip to Japan, he took a workshop with kintsugi master David Pike. For more information, visit kinstugi.boston.
Class Description
At this open shop session, kintsugi enthusiasts meet up to work on projects, hone their techniques, learn from each other, and show off completed pieces.
Attendees and the instructor will share tips and tricks, but these sessions do not include formal instructions or a set curriculum. Therefore, prior kinstugi experience (for example, taking the Intro to Kintsugi course) is required.

This will be paid once, directly to the instructor at the start of the first class meeting. This instructor accepts payments in cash, check, or through Venmo.
