Ajrak Making Workshop
It was great fun curating a creative workshop in collaboration with University of Arts London and Subcontinent Divided. The workshop was on the ancient art of Ajrak making and the participants had an opportunity to learn the history behind the Ajrak, the process and also create their own interpretation of the Ajrak.
I love how Arts and crafts bring communities together and is so important for the mental health and well being in the modern world that we live in.
