Cloth & Wax: A 2-Day Encaustic and Textile Workshop
Discover the creative possibilities of combining fabric, paper, thread, and molten beeswax in this immersive 2-day art experience.

You’ll learn:
• Safe practices for working with hot wax and encaustic tools
• How to fuse fabric into encaustic surfaces
• Hand-stitching techniques for texture and detail
• Methods for coloring, staining, and altering fabrics
• Plus—a guided museum visit to Storm King Art Center or Dia Beacon for inspiration from large-scale contemporary works in textile sculptures and installation art.
No encaustic experience needed—this class is open to all curious makers, artists, and experimenters.
All materials and museum fees included, with the option to bring your own fabrics or meaningful textiles.
