Come to Slip Studio and be transported to Java, Indonesia, for an evening of tasting and learning. Selvia Tjandra-Stothers will guide us through a typical array of Indonesian produce, fresh fruit, and vegetables found at H Mart. You know, the ones you don’t know what to do with?!  Selvia will talk about each one and explain how best to use fresh Asian produce in your kitchen.

Then, we will settle into the studio for a cooking demo and dinner - Lemper Ayam, sticky rice with coconut chicken wrapped in banana leaves and Putu Ayu, steamed pandan cake with grated coconut. Selvia will demonstrate and teach, we will ask and learn (how to roll Lemper Ayam), and taste (both dishes). It is guaranteed to be a delightful and delicious evening!

Tickets must be purchased beforehand and space is limited.

Carve your own jewelry dish out of brown stoneware clay.  This is a mindful and calming exercise of slowly carving clay out of a thick slab of clay and creating divets, crevices and grooves for you to store your rings, jewelry, and trinkets.
