Patterns in Bloom: Batik Workshop

Event Status : Open

Discover the beauty of Batik, a centuries-old tradition of painting on fabric.


Discover the beauty of Batik, a centuries-old tradition of painting on fabric. In this hands-on workshop, children will bring pre-designed Batik canvases to life with vibrant colours, learning how this artform celebrates culture, creativity, and storytelling. With step-by-step guidance, participants will explore the significance of Batik designs and the unique wax-resist technique that makes them so special. No experience is needed — just pick up a brush, relax, and enjoy experimenting with colour and pattern. All materials are provided, and every child will take home their own Batik masterpiece to treasure.

In its ongoing commitment to combatting Islamophobia, the Islamic Museum of Australia champions an understanding and appreciation for Islamic art and culture. The school holiday workshops are supported by the Victorian Government.
