Please register to join the waitlist below.</strong><br /> <br /> Join us for this hands-on ink workshop which introduces participants to the foundations of Chinese brush practice through movement, rhythm, and mark-making.</p> <p>Without focusing on copying calligraphy, the session lead by artist, Bryan Mew, emphasises how ancient pictograms emerged from observation, gesture, and embodied motion.</p> <p>Participants will work with both large and small brushes, learning how scale changes the way the body moves and how ink behaves on paper. After guided exercises exploring lines, waves, and wet/dry techniques, participants will spend an extended period developing an artwork based on a selection of ancient Chinese characters.</p> <p>To complete the experience, each participant will stamp their work with a traditional Chinese zodiac seal provided by the artist, creating a personal and meaningful piece to take home.</p> <p>Whether you’re new to ink or refining your skills, this workshop offers a creative and reflective experience connecting history, gesture, and imagination.<br /> <br /> This workshop is suitable for ages 16 years and over.</p>   <h3>Sunday 13 September 2026</h3>   <h3>Address</h3> <p>Hurstville Museum & Gallery<br /> 14 MacMahon Street, Hurstville.<br />  </p> <h3>Time</h3> <p>2.30pm - 4.30pm.<br />  </p> <h3>Cost</h3> <p>$27.50.<br />  </p> <h3>Bookings</h3> <p>Bookings are essential, please call (02) 9330 6444 or book via the bookings button below. </p> <p><a class="DarkButton" href="https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/art-in-the-afternoon-the-language-of-ink-tickets-1989970118192?aff=whatson" target="_blank">Book Now</a></p>   <h3>More Information:</h3> <p><strong>Terms & Conditions:</strong></p> <ul> <li value="1"> <p>Bookings are essential for all activities.</p> </li> <li value="2"> <p>No refunds for cancellations or missed bookings.</p> </li> <li value="3"> <p>Program swapping is not permitted.</p> </li> <li value="4"> <p>Programs are fully supervised by qualified staff.</p> </li> <li value="5"> <p>While all reasonable precautions are taken, participation in the program is at the participants'<a href="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer ugc" target="_blank" title="">,</a> parent/guardian’s own risk.</p> </li> <li value="6"> <p>The museum and its staff are not liable for any injury, loss, or damage sustained during the program unless caused by gross negligence.</p> </li> </ul> <p>Attendance at our events may be digitally recorded through photographs and/or videos.
