Nature House: Dye Tryin' Sustainable Fabrics

This week we’ll be taking inspiration from nature and the vibrant colours around us. Join us at the Nature House for a plant-based fabric dyeing workshop. We’ll be using foraged plants as pigments and food scraps to upcycle your old t-shirts and anything else you’d like to bring to rejuvenate with a pop of colour. Learn about traditional dyeing techniques and get creative by customizing your own clothing. This event will only have two registration sessions. Friday morning and Saturday morning. These will be extended sessions to allow for each participant to finish their fabric dyeing project. Maximum 20 people registered in each session.
