HARLEYSVILLE — The Mennonite Heritage Center will hold a Tulips in Winter fraktur workshop on Jan. 13.
During the three-hour workshop, instructor and artist Emily Smucker-Beidler will introduce students to fraktur through the history and creation of one of its most popular motifs: the tulip. Participants will explore how fraktur artists used pattern and color to create colorful tulips. They will start with their choice of a tulip template and then be shown how to create a small, finished piece in their own individual style.
The workshop will be held from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The cost is $65 for non-members and $60 for members. Students can bring their own watercolors or buy a fraktur watercolor set from Emily for $20. Preregistration is required and class size is limited. To register, visit mhep.org/events or call 215-256-3020.
Programming at the Mennonite Heritage Center shares Anabaptist-Mennonite stories in order to educate, inspire and witness to the church and community. For more information, visit mhep.org.
