Wax Resist Batik Workshop

The Wax Resist Batik Workshop is a hands-on art session where participants learn to create intricate patterns on fabric using melted wax and dye. Led by artist Adam Cooley, this event introduces the traditional batik technique while allowing attendees to contribute a unique piece to a future public art installation at Brentwood Park.

During the session, participants will work at supervised stations to apply hot wax to cotton cloth before layering on vibrant dyes. You will gain a solid understanding of the resist process and receive step-by-step instructions for finishing your artwork at home. This is a practical way to learn a creative skill while directly supporting a local community art project.

This workshop is open to all skill levels and provides a structured environment for those interested in textile arts. The session is highly interactive and suitable for anyone looking to engage in a productive creative process. If you enjoy hands-on learning and wish to leave your mark on a public space, please join us to start your artistic project today.
