There are a number of cooking classes in Turkey created just for tourists. I was tempted to look into them more, but then it dawned on me… I don’t like to cook! I prefer eating, so at most, I think I’ll stick to a culinary tour. BUT, I was just reading about an art form called Ebru. Ebru is an art form in which ink is floated on water and swirled into various patterns. Paper is then set lightly on top, thus soaking up the color. I love art and trying new mediums, so I thought, I wonder if there are any courses for tourists in Istanbul? And lo-and-behold there are!
Here are some courses that are available for my future reference:

Here are some pictures of Ebru art:
This was a huge fad for decorating paper and fabric a while ago. Thanks for reminding me!
