PALM LEAF WORKSHOP BY MARY THERESA
TASMAI / A CENTRE FOR ART & CULTURE/ PUDUCHERRY.
Sunday/ 9 June 2024/ 4.00 PM – 5.30 PM
Marie Theresa conducts a unique workshop on ‘Palm Leaf Craft’ with varied designs and can make eco-friendly wonderful baskets, pouches, containers, trays, files, children’s rattles, mats, and jewelry.
“The workshop introduces the basics of palm leaf craft so that this beautiful eco-friendly medium that is found in abundance locally can be crafted into objects used daily and explored more creatively. If the Palf leaf objects are used carefully, they may last for five years or more,” says the organisers of the workshop.
Marie Theresa hails from Puducherry and is a member of the Art and Craft Village, Murungapakkam. She did a one-year training course at the District Industry Centre (DIC) and conducts training workshops at her home under the aegis of DIC. Earlier she has conducted workshops at Tasmai also.
