Event Description
Teapot Lantern Workshop: Brewing Light & Connections
Light up the night with your own story.
As part of the Victoria at Dusk festival, join artist Ann K. Chou for a hands-on workshop that blends tradition, community, and eco-friendly art. Using a unique "depressed cup" technique, you will transform everyday materials into a glowing teapot lantern.
In this session, we invite you to use Sumi-e ink to paint motifs or words from your own heritage onto your lantern, sharing your "language" and story with your neighbors. Once finished, carry your lantern through the CloudWalk—a magical path of fairy lights and inflatable clouds at the Conference Centre Pavilion.
