Promo: Craft Warriors at the Asian Art Museum

Pub date April 9, 2013

Are you down with DIY? Craft virtuosos will be present to help transform the Asian Art Museum into a workshop for one night. Emiko Oye, Ealish Wilson, Kathryn Kenworth, and Megumi Inoyue all dominate their respective areas (jewelry, sculptural textiles, discarded materials use, and gift wrapping). Choose your team (are you a “textures” person or a “colors” person?) and construct fashionable armor and accessories inspired by the iconic terracotta warriors. Model your handmade haute couture in the photo booth. Don’t want to get your hands dirty? Observe from the sidelines and cheer on your favorite team. Learn the skinny on the Bay Area craft scene with Handful of Salt, Workshop Residence, The Crucible, and SCRAP among others. Music will be spun by Velvet Einstein, the galleries will be open, and so will the bars. May the best crafter win. Find more info here.

Thursday, April 18 from 5-9 pm @ Asian Art Museum, 200 Larkin, SF | Just $10
