About Baisha Embroidery Art Institute
Its focus is handmade embroidery: displayed pieces show the fine stitching, while working embroiderers and students connect the finished objects with a continuing craft. The courtyard setting makes this a useful complement to the religious paintings at the nearby Baisha mural complex. Treat demonstrations or lessons as activities to confirm with the institute; neither a particular workshop nor a purchase is necessary to appreciate the craft.
What to look for
- Hand-embroidered works show the stitching and pictorial detail of the craft.
- The Naxi courtyard provides the setting for the institute’s displays and teaching.
