Block printing in Bagru, India
We are going to India and would like to bring you with us.
Alice and Yolande share a love of all things India and are frequent visitors of this beautiful, vibrant and colourful country.
This is a time to give yourself 10 days to immerse yourself in creativity, nourishing yoga practices, sacred sightseeing and shopping. There will be plenty of time to relax in the private garden with a private pool, in Rajasthan. We will be spending 7 days at the beautiful Artists Farm Jaipur, an organic farm house, with light filled rooms, garden views, and a private pool. It is perfectly located between the pink city of Japiur and Bagru, famous for its fabric printing and where we will be spending a couple of days learning the art of block printing and natural dying with master block printers.
The retreat also includes a sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal, Fatehpur Sikri, Agra Fort and a tour around Old Delhi before returning home or staying on to explore at your leisure.
A little from Alice,
“It has been a dream of mine to share this beautiful place with more people, it's such a huge privilege to go and block print with the Chippa family and Bagru. Its famous drying square is somewhere that is wonderful to experience that I’m excited to share with you all. It's rural and is a chance to see some real India. For me it's important that we learn about how our fabrics are made and also support traditional crafts, so bringing you here to be part of that with me is incredibly exciting”
This is the first retreat we have organised and we wanted to make sure that we make it as affordable and relaxing as possible. Our accommodation is truly gorgeous and I know lots of great places for shopping in both Jaipur and Pushkar if you choose to come for a day trip there.
