About this Event
This four-week course introduces participants to the history, materials, and foundational techniques of Mughal miniature painting — a refined tradition within Persian manuscript art known for its intricate detail, luminous color, and intimate portraiture.
Led by artist Zainab Zulfiqar, the workshop blends historical context with demonstrations and guided practice, culminating in your own small-scale painted portrait. No prior art experience is required.
Zainab will handcraft traditional brushes for the course, honoring historic methods, and we’ll be working on specialty paper sourced directly from Pakistan — materials chosen with care and intention.
Slow, precise, and deeply focused — a rare opportunity to study a centuries-old tradition in a small group setting.
✴️Please note: Tickets are non-refundable, so make sure you can make it before grabbing yours! We may take photos during the event for documentation and promo — just let us know if you’d prefer not to be photographed.
