29 November to 29 November 2017
Earlier this year, Baxters International (Art) began developing an exciting new app – BAM! – a mobile and online market place for buying and selling art pieces from all over the world. They have been overwhelmed by support and have now attracted over 270 Artists making the App look vibrant and very well populated.
On November the 29th, they will be hosting an official launch party at Visual Arts Centre and would like to extend a personal invitation to you to come along and ‘take a look inside the App’. Featuring Augmented Reality, you will be able to see what any piece of Art looks like on any wall in real size. They are one of the first Apps to include this cutting edge technology and would love to share it, and a bit about the background with you. All you need is a phone!
In addition, you will be able to meet many of the Artists and Jewellery Designers who have chosen to showcase their work on BAM! and see some of their fantastic pieces.
BAM! would love to see you at the event so please mark the date in your diaries. More details are attached in your invitation, and please feel free to bring along your friends and family. We want to share BAM! with as many people as possible.

In the Batik Introduction Handkerchief Painting workshop, participants will learn the traditional art of batik, a wax-resist dyeing technique originating from Indonesia. The workshop begins with a brief history and overview of batik, highlighting its cultural significance and various techniques. Participants will then observe a demonstration of applying wax with tjanting tools and dyeing the fabric. Following the demonstration, each participant will design and create their own batik handkerchief, applying wax to create patterns and then dyeing their fabric. The workshop concludes with a group discussion, allowing participants to share their creations and reflect on their learning experience.
