OVERVIEW
5D4N Indigo Shibori Masterclass Retreat
Date: 5 - 9 June 2025
Step into an artist-led retreat set within the serene landscapes of Sukasantai Farmstay, a family farm-resort located in West Java, Indonesia.
Over five wholesome days, you’ll immerse yourself in the magic of indigo dyeing—from harvesting plants to crafting your own vats and mastering shibori techniques—guided by our founder and textile artist, Autumn Brown, all in a scenic open-air studio surrounded by nature.
Every element is designed for you to unwind, find inspiration, and dive into the joy of creating. Enjoy exclusive bonuses like cassava resist painting and experimenting with dyes from local plants, tea, and food waste. Beyond the studio, savour simple pleasures: pick fresh produce, wander through lush bamboo forests, enjoy a quiet moment fishing, and cozy up by the bonfire for evenings filled with laughters and marshmallows.
Each meal throughout the retreat is a treat, prepared with farm-fresh ingredients to nourish and delight, making every meal a part of the experience. We’re excited to welcome you to a journey that’s as inspiring as it is rejuvenating, brimming with happiness, creativity, and unforgettable memories.
