Join a workshop where participants will learn an ancient art form born of societal divides

The box includes the vase, flowers and materials for the final product

Learn the traditional art form of mata ni pachedi, where paintings are dedicated to a mother goddess (the phrase literally translates to 'behind the mother goddess'). It dates back over 300 years and is a style that's typical to Gujarat. The paintings are rendered on cloth, which symbolises a temple to the deity. The reason, legend has it, is that this art form originated after a nomadic community were barred from entering temples, and thus used the cloth as a substitute place of worship. Try your hand at the ancient form."
