Join An to learn about the wide range of colors that nature can yield. Using in-season, plant-derived dyestuffs and other natural materials, you will have the opportunity to experiment with various colors and learn about the ways to prepare fabric for dyeing. A brief history of the practice of natural dyeing, the origins of dyestuffs and colors, and the science behind the process will be discussed. Each participant will take home one hand-dyed piece.
