Description

In this fiber arts camp we will explore ancient Japanese traditions such as shibori and silk painting. Campers will learn techniques for applying resist and colors to the silk. Silk is known for its quality of taking on dye beautifully and creating vibrant colors. Campers will gain confidence and skills in natural dyeing on silk and learn how to bring their ideas to life on fabric! Campers will come away with  a lovely piece of wearable art.


Atula Sakhi has had a life-long passion for the arts. She had a career in the world of fashion before she began teaching art classes to children. Atula and her family moved to Chapel Hill in 2019 for friends and community. She previously served as art director for a local private school and currently teaches at The ArtsCenter in Carrboro, as well as leading art clubs at the Expedition School in Hillsborough.
