Cultural Lecture: Katazome

Katazome is a Japanese technique of dying fabrics or paper using a resist paste made of rice flour applied to fabric through a stencil. For 500 years, Japanese kimono and textiles have been produced with paper stencils. Come hear Karen Illman Miller, who has worked in the artform since 1994, for an introduction to katazome from 1:15-2:15pm in the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Arts Learning Center.
