Formline Workshop w Guna, Jan 26th-29th 2026

from $50.00

Date: Jan 26th-29th (4-day workshop)

Time: 9 am-4 pm, all 4 days with a lunch break

This is a 100% virtual workshop on Zoom.

Step into the world of Formline design with artist and educator Guná (Dakhká Tlingit/Tagish Khwáan) — an award-winning artist recognized for her bold contemporary approach to traditional Tlingit art. Her work is rooted in sovereignty, activism, and visual storytelling, shaped by mentorship from master Indigenous artists and by study at Emily Carr.

In this hands-on virtual workshop, participants will learn the foundational shapes and principles of Northwest Coast Formline, build guided sketches, and complete their own original painted Formline piece. Together, we will explore the evolution of this art form, the impacts of colonialism, and the powerful resurgence of Indigenous women in contemporary arts today.

Whether you are new to Formline or returning to the practice, you will leave with knowledge, connection, and artwork created by your own hand.
