Fluid Acrylic Painting Experience Class
Fluid Acrylic Painting is a modern emerging form of abstract art. Unlike traditional realistic painting, the creation of fluid acrylic paintings does not emphasise painting techniques. Participants only need to mix different acrylic paints and pour them onto the canvas using various tools, or control the flow of paint in different ways such as tilting or blowing, to create unique and free textures. Because the paints used in fluid acrylic painting are highly fluid, the resulting artwork is full of unknowns and randomness. In busy daily life, fluid acrylic painting without creative restrictions can be a great way to relieve stress and relax.

Cloisonné Painting Experience Class
Cloisonné, known as "Jingtai Blue" in Chinese, was introduced to China during the Yuan Dynasty and reached its peak during the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty. Apart from its association with the prevalent era, Cloisonné was named "Jingtai Blue" because most of the finished products produced at that time were blue in colour. Prior to the 19th century, Jingtai Blue could only be produced under court supervision. Later, the techniques involved gradually spread to the general public and has been listed as a national-level intangible cultural heritage in China. This experience class draws inspiration from the production methods of Jingtai Blue. It involves bending gold or silver-coloured aluminium wire into desired patterns and then "filling" the patterns with coloured sand powder. Originally, Jingtai Blue appeared in the making of jewelry, but it gradually found its way into daily life. The workshop aims to provide participants with the opportunity to create artworks that are as elegant and exquisite as jewellery, bringing a touch of refinement and beauty to their lives.

Alcohol Ink Art Experience Class
Alcohol ink art is popular in Europe and America. It is an art form that uses wind and tilted paper to push the flow of alcohol while dispersing ink. By controlling the size of the wind and the direction of the airflow, various effects can be created and rendered on specialised paper, such as marble patterns, growth rings, streamlines, and radiation. This art form is similar to dropping ink into a glass of water, allowing colors to naturally expand, overlap, slowly accumulate layers, and express emotional changes through colour. In alcohol ink art, there are no "failed" works, only different styles suitable for anyone to create freely. It can help participants relieve stress and is a form of entertainment in busy life.

Zentangle Experience Class
Zentangle is an art form without rules, right or wrong, and comparison. Often, all that is needed is a piece of paper and a pen to start. In the process of creating, participants can let go of other trivial matters in life, follow their own pace and feelings, and construct the image stroke by stroke, assigning various meanings to each line and shape. Zentangle does not focus on the outcome of the creation, but values the ease and calmness brought about by repeating the drawing of lines and shapes. During creation, one can focus and listen carefully to their inner voice, and learn to accept the differences and changes in all aspects of themselves.

Recreate: Traditional Rolling Lantern Workshop
The Mid-Autumn Festival is an important traditional Chinese holiday. It originated in China and falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month each year. Different regions have developed various customs for the Mid-Autumn Festival, including moon gazing, family reunions and lantern festivals. Rolling lanterns, meanwhile, originated in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas and are named for their ability to rotate freely without extinguishing the flame. Its history can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. The Southern Song poet, Fan Chengda, described rolling lanterns in his poem with the lines, "Throwing the candle, soaring and stable; pushing the ball, rolling lightly on the ground." The Qing Dynasty poet, Sun Yi, expressed in his poem "Lun Deng" that "Children bind bamboo into wheels, spinning and interlocking, rotating and flying, yet the lantern remains unextinguished. Strong men play with it, tossing it without pause, and it is called a rolling lantern." Since 2006, rolling lanterns in various regions have been included in the national intangible cultural heritage list, affirming their cultural significance. This workshop will instruct participants on making a simplified version of rolling lantern, and using different papers and paintings to create modern decorations. Video for introduction:
