Faux Kintsugi Gathering @ Create Makerspace

Take part in a creative practice that celebrates healing, connection, and the art of making whole again

Join Create Makerspace for a calming, hands-on workshop inspired by the Japanese art of kintsugi, the practice of mending broken pottery with gold to honour, rather than hide, its history.

In this accessible “faux kintsugi” version, you’ll use simple, safe materials to recreate the look and spirit of this beautiful tradition. During the session, you’ll gently repair a pre-broken ceramic piece while exploring the philosophy behind kintsugi: embracing imperfection, resilience, and transformation. This is not just a craft workshop—it’s an invitation to slow down, reflect, and find meaning in the process of repair.

No prior experience is needed. All Kintsugi materials are provided, and you’ll leave with your own restored piece as a reminder that what’s been broken can become something uniquely beautiful.

Come as you are, and take part in a creative practice that celebrates healing, connection, and the art of making whole again.
