Kintsugi Class (Japanese Object Mending)

Overview

Kintsugi (golden joinery or repair) is the Japanese technique of mending broken objects with lacquer and powdered metals. Led by Lisa Bacon, in this two-day exercise we will use gold powder and a special glue to mend and repurpose your treasured artifacts and heirlooms.
