The new year is coming, and with all the challenges that many of us have endured over the past couple of years, the Arts Council of Princeton has partnered with Miya Table & Home to create a community project that is a refresh, a restart, and a recommitment to our personal goals, hopes, and dreams. This special Daruma workshop will take place on Tuesday, December 28 from 1 to 2 p.m. at the Arts Council of Princeton, located at 102 Witherspoon Street.

The Daruma is a traditional symbol of perseverance, achievement, and good fortune and begins as a plain white, blank canvas. During this workshop, local artist Minako Ota will lead guests to gather ideas and encouragement to customize your Daruma anyway you like — paint, deco page, Sharpie, etc. Use your imagination — these are your dreams after all!
