Are you on the hunt for unique things to do in Sydney and, like us, have always had a deep appreciation and fascination for all things golden? Join the Art Gilding Academy for a two-hour introduction to gold leafing workshop, where you will learn the basics of applying gold leaf to objects. Led by husband and wife duo Karl and Brigitte Eggert, this relaxing two-hour class will demonstrate the ancient art of gilding and guide you in creating a stunning leafed abalone shell with natural mother of pearl, which you can take home after the class! To make this class even better, you can also enjoy wine and edible 24 karat gold Tim Tams throughout the session. This introductory workshop is perfect for complete beginners who want to learn more about gilding in a calm and friendly environment. Entry Cost All tickets $129
