Discover the hands-on art of Indian block printing in a relaxed, welcoming group. Choose from a range of wooden blocks and create your own printed piece as you learn about the craft and its traditions. There’s room for conversation, too-from sharing stories to exploring the cultures of India and Japan. It’s more than a workshop; it’s a creative experience to enjoy together.

Visit the artist and founder’s home studio on selected weekdays each month, by appointment. Part studio, part showroom, it’s a welcoming space to explore TANBAN’s work, fabrics and block-print pieces. Take your time, enjoy a cup of Indian chai or a homemade Indian lunch, and have a personal conversation with the artist. Open studio dates are limited, so visits need to be arranged in advance.

Enjoy block printing at your own pace in a private session with the artist. It’s ideal if you’d like more time to explore different designs and wooden blocks, or print on a larger piece of fabric. Whether you come on your own or with your group, you can settle into the process and create something uniquely yours.

Spend time painting and making art alongside an Indian artist living in Japan. Explore watercolour, acrylic, oil painting or drawing, or simply follow your curiosity and let your creativity flow. Sessions can be shaped around your interests, whether you’d like to learn a particular technique or enjoy an easygoing creative conversation as you paint.
