Meeting Room 108

Kolam is an art form from Southern India that is thought to bring prosperity to homes. Inspired by traditional patterns, we'll draw on planks and paint them with bright colors. All materials provided.

The colorful "kolam" is a symbol of an open heart and an auspicious welcome and thought to bring prosperity to homes. These designs are traditionally drawn on the ground in front of homes in Southern India using rice flour. Inspired by this, we'll learn and practice the art form by drawing on a plank of wood and painting them.

No experience is necessary. All materials will be provided. 

Registration will open at 9 a.m. on Saturday, November 16.
