Bundle Dyeing with The Dogwood Dyer
This rooftop farm workshop will introduce participants to the colorful world of natural dye plants, many of which are dual purpose edibles and have herbal/medicinal properties as well!  Natural dye basics such as mordanting, color extraction, and historical context will be covered in this class.

You'll learn the unique, free form technique of bundle dyeing using fresh, locally grown and foraged dyestuffs with The Dogwood Dyer: Liz Spencer. What's more, you'll learn techniques and actions that set her practice apart from other natural colorists, focusing on sustainability and environmental resiliency.

You'll be amazed at the colors attainable by using only plants and minerals!

Each participant will leave with a large bundle dyed silk scarf, resources lists and instructional guide on how to repeat the process at home


No previous dyeing experience necessary!

Tickets are non-refundable.
