Time & Location
Feb 17, 2024, 10:00 AM – Feb 18, 2024, 2:30 PM

About the event
Meet Tatsuya “Tad” Murao of Kintsugi Boston and learn about the Japanese Art of kintsugi. Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing and restoring broken pottery items. Rather than making broken parts look brand new, Kintsugi sees repaired parts as beautiful and celebrates flaws as something unique to be embraced.
While being inspired by his art, try making something out of recycled materials and embrace the uniqueness of your creations!
Through kintsugi we will explore topics of culture, identity, and visual arts while learning how to be open minded, respect the self and others, think creatively, and work flexibly.
This program is offered in collaboration with the Boston Children's Museum and supported by the Pucker family.
Suitable for ages 3 to 5, 5 to 6 , and 6+.
This program will have two sessions on both February 17th and 18th. On both days, the event will run from 10:00-11:30am and then from 1:00-2:30pm.
The workshop is open to anyone with museum admission.
