What to expect

Near Galata Tower, discover ebru, the ancient Turkish art of marbling on water. This UNESCO Heritage technique creates stunning patterns as colors float and swirl on specially prepared water.

Learn to use traditional tools like the "biz" (metal stylus) and special brushes. Drop colors onto water, watch them spread and dance, then gently pull them into patterns. Finally, lay paper on top to capture your unique creation forever.

No artistic experience needed. The process is calming and meditative, suitable for all ages. Guidance in Turkish, English, or Russian. Fresh Turkish tea and Turkish delight served throughout.

Take home your finished artwork in protective packaging, plus a participation certificate. Sessions daily 08:00 to 23:00. Groups up to 20 welcome.
