About it

Discover the beauty of Chinese Paper Cutting (剪纸) in this 1.5 hours hands-on workshop that introduces a timeless folk art rich in symbolism and cultural meaning. Traditionally used to decorate windows, doors and festive spaces, paper cuttings often represent blessings such as good fortune, happiness, and longevity.

Guided step by step, they will practise folding, symmetrical cutting and motif creation to produce their own meaningful designs.
