Programme Synopsis Soft to touch and cute to look at, latch hook badge makes anything that you pin it on, pop! With a friendly new approach to an age-old craft, this workshop offers all the essentials for students to create their very own latch hook badge, inspired by the Peranakan culture! The workshop will begin with a virtual tour in Joo Chiat, the area where the Peranakan community first settled in. Students will discuss the design elements of these heritage buildings and follow the templates to create their own tile inspired badges. These small but iconic emblems are not only quintessential to the Peranakan culture but reflective of cross-cultural exchanges between different ethnic communities of Singapore.
