Immerse yourself in Sri Lanka’s artistic heritage with a traditional mask painting workshop in Kandy. Learn about the symbolism and history of these masks and create your own.
Step into a world of myth, ritual, and artistic heritage with a traditional Sri Lankan mask painting workshop. This immersive experience introduces you to one of Sri Lanka’s most enduring artisan traditions — the creation of elaborate wooden masks that have played central roles in ritual healing ceremonies (such as Sanni Yakuma) and folk theatre (Kolam) for hundreds of years.
Guided by a skilled artist, gain insight into how these masks were traditionally painted and made, the storytelling roles they serve, and the symbolism behind distinct colors and designs.
After a brief introduction to the craft’s history and cultural significance, paint your own traditional mask using vibrant paints and techniques inspired by centuries-old practices. No prior art experience is needed — this workshop is designed to be engaging and welcoming for all levels. At the end, take home your unique creation — a beautiful souvenir and meaningful reminder of Sri Lanka’s rich visual and ritual heritage.
