Itinerary
Firstly, you will be welcomed to a home in central Istanbul, Beşiktaş. After warming up with Ahmet, our dear Marbling instructor, you will be given some historical and cultural information about this Turkish Art, Paper Marbling.
Although the art is called with different names such as; water marbling, marbling art, water marbling paint, turkish marbling, Turkish paper marbling; in Turkish, we simply call it Ebru.
After some information about the art and some insider access to Turkish home hospitality (big part of Turkish culture), you will start learning this traditional Turkish art with different technics that are used.
Having learned how to bring your creativity to visuality through Turkish/Ottoman paper marbling would be one of the most unique experiences you can have in Turkey, considering the fact that you will also be experiencing Turkish home hospitality.
You will leave this experience with a feeling of fulfillment and connection. Both with the art itself and the local friends you created bonds with.
So, come, be our guests to learn, create and connect together.

This is a unique experience! From Ahmet’s apartment full with plants, art and good energy until the music, healthy delicious snacks and of course the class itself!! It’s such a beautiful art and your imagination is the limit! Very delicate with the way he teaches and shares the techniques! Gracias Ahmet 🙏 hope I could come and continue learning 💫

As a Turk, I can't believe that I haven't done marbling in all these years.
Ahmet is very knowledgeable and very generous in sharing everything he knows. He has created a wonderful environment in his home to give you this experience, you feel like you have entered an oasis with lush green plants, great music, and works of art from which you can draw inspiration from every corner of the house. After showing you the basic techniques, it provides you with all the materials so you can try it yourself. Ending the day with works of art you made is truly priceless.
I will go to try this again as soon as possible

We had fun learning marbling with Ahmet, he showed us several techniques and we got a chance to make our very own creations with different types of ink. The time flew by and we enjoyed also snacks in his lovely home.

I can't say enough good things about Ahmet and his Ebru workshop. His kindness and patience as a teacher were truly remarkable. He made sure we were comfortable and at ease throughout the experience, and his passion for Ebru was evident in every step of the process.
