The Fun Scented Sachet & Calligraphy Workshop

Scent, Strokes, and Safety: Scented Sachet & Calligraphy Workshop
If you’re into meaningful crafts and learning something new, this one’s calling your name.
On Saturday, June 21 from 11:00AM to 12:00PM, swing by the Teen Corner in San Carlos for the Scented Sachet & Calligraphy Workshop—a peaceful little slice of culture wrapped up in creativity.
You’ll dive into the traditions of the Dragon Boat Festival while crafting your own “平安” (peace and safety) scented sachet—a symbolic token of protection and good vibes. Then, channel your inner artist as you learn the basics of Chinese calligraphy, using the legendary Four Treasures of the Study: brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Perfect for anyone 19+, and especially chill for our 55+ folks looking for a calm, hands-on afternoon. Snag your spot and bring home more than just a sachet—you’ll carry some timeless tradition with you too.
