SPRING SKILLS OF A NATURALIST: BREAKFAST WITH THE BIRDS
2025-04-25 07:00 - 09:00, 2025-04-18 07:00 - 09:00 | Island Wood, 4450 Blakely Ave NE, Bainbridge Island, WA, 98110
Breakfast with the Birds. There may be no combination of words that can bring more joy, and we intend on basking in the pleasures of both. For birders in the Pacific Northwest, April is the start of a promising new year. Warming temperatures, lengthening days, and flowering plants signal the return of colorful, musical, migratory birds, such as Rufous Hummingbirds and Orange-crowned Warblers. Having quietly spent the winter in the forests of IslandWood, Ruby-crowned Kinglets and Hermit Thrushes can be heard singing their melodic songs. They say the ‘early bird catches the worm,’ but the early birder sees the most birds! Springtime on our trails is worth setting that alarm for!

Meet the Artist: Young Kim
2025-04-19 14:30 - 16:30 | Bainbridge Island Museum of Art, 550 Winslow Way E, Bainbridge Island, WA, 98110
Meet the Artists are casual, unstructured opportunities to interact with the artists in their exhibitions. Stop by the galleries and meet exhibiting artist Young Kim!
ABOUT THE ARTIST Young Ok Kim was born in North Korea and emigrated to Busan, South Korea, just before the Korean War broke out. She earned her pharmacy degree from Duk Sung University and went on to run her own pharmacy in Seoul before eventually moving to the United States. Arriving in the U.S. in the 1970s, Young Ok faced a strong societal push for assimilation, but she remained deeply proud of her Korean heritage, which she shared with her children, friends, and colleagues. It was with this same spirit of cultural pride that she discovered and began to teach traditional Korean hanjicraft — a delicate paper craft that uses mulberry bark paper to create everyday items. Young first encountered the art form after retiring, and for nearly two decades, she has taught workshops and classes, passing on her knowledge to others. For Young Ok, creating hanjicraft involves a process of observation, learning the fundamental techniques, and then adapting them into her own designs. The repetitive motions involved in the craft help to build muscle memory and facilitate a more fluid creative process. The intricate, multi-layered paper cuts are time-consuming, but for Young Ok, cutting the patterns is a meditative experience. Her color choices and patterns blend traditional Korean motifs with her personal interpretations, often inspired by photographs and found images. Hanjicraft, a tradition that dates back to the Joseon Dynasty, is being reintroduced to global audiences through the resurgence of Korean historical dramas, such as Under the Queen’s Umbrella, which feature intricate furniture and accessories from daily palace life. Inspired by this growing appreciation of Korean culture, Young Ok hopes to share her love for creating functional art that honors the rich history of her homeland.

Hanjicraft Mini-Workshops with Young Kim
2025-04-19 10:30 - 13:30 | Bainbridge Island Museum of Art, 550 Winslow Way E, Bainbridge Island, WA, 98110
Create a Hanjicraft pencil holder or small tray with exhibiting artist Young Kim! All ages are welcome to these free mini-workshops. Open to all ages. Kids under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. Hanjicraft is an art form that was developed during the Joseon (Chosun) Dynasty. Hanji is a traditional paper made from mulberry tree pulp. Natural dyes are used to produce the bright and varied colors of hanji. Participants will receive a kit (chipboard structure, pre-cut paper, and stencils) and receive instruction on how to assemble the piece. Participants can choose to apply polyurethane at home if desired for added durability. Participants can take the items home the same day and begin using them immediately.
Artist Young Kim will give instruction every half hour between 10:30am and 1:30pm! Attendance is limited per 30 minute workshop so sign up in advance!
