Essence of Fiji

Spend a morning at a local art studio celebrating Fijian culture, colour, and environment. This two-hour session begins with a presentation and gallery tour, revealing the stories behind Fiji-inspired artwork and traditional barkcloth crafted by heritage artists. Next, roll up your sleeves and create your art! Guided by friendly artists, you’ll stencil patterns on barkcloth using mangrove sap dyes or blend vibrant acrylic paints to make an island-vibe art piece or a colourful tote bag. If you finish early, join the mural team to add your touch to collaborative murals for local community settings. Enjoy light refreshments and informal photo shoots, and shop for souvenirs or your piece of Fijian art.
