Turkish Marbled Silk Scarves with Brenda Dwyer at Paul Nigra Center for Creative Arts

Discover the ancient art of Turkish marbling (Ebru) and create your own one-of-a-kind silk scarf in this mesmerizing, hands-on workshop. Using traditional marbling techniques, you’ll float vibrant pigments on a thickened water surface and gently manipulate them into stunning organic patterns before transferring the design onto luxurious silk.
This class will cover the basics of color preparation, pattern creation and proper silk handling. Watch as your design transforms with every movement—no two scarves will ever be the same. The process is both meditative and exciting, blending spontaneity with artistic intention.
Perfect for beginners and experienced creatives alike, this workshop celebrates the beauty of fluid art and centuries-old craftsmanship. All materials are included, and you’ll leave with a wearable work of art that is uniquely yours!
