What is Plant Rubbing?
A century-old intangible cultural heritage. No chemical dyes – just a hammer, fresh plants, and your hands. In this workshop, you’ll make a unique plant-rubbed tote bag. A bilingual instructor will guide you from leaf selection to hammering, sharing the history and techniques step by step.
