art class & workshops
Washi Tape Art Classes are held on Bainbridge Island, WA
Tape art is fun, flexible, and mess-free—perfect for all skill levels! From bold patterns to delicate designs, it lets you explore creativity with no mistakes—just peel and redo!
Free Washi Tape Art Event
People of all ages are invited to drop-in and participate in creating a large-scale collaborative artwork using Japanese washi tape – a colorful, expressive medium that is accessible, low-barrier, and joyful to work with.
Artist Melody Maleitzke has designed this workshop to be inclusive, beginner-friendly, and welcoming to all ages and skill levels. She will introduce you to washi tape as a fine art material and guide you in creating individual and collective components of the final piece.
Washi Wonder: A Community Tapestry is a community-engaged art project funded by an Arts & Humanities Bainbridge Artist Grant. The final piece will be publicly exhibited during the Bainbridge Art Walk on June 5, 2026.
