Welcome to the ancient and beautiful practice of indigo dyeing.
Indigo traditions come from all over the world and have developed into countless complex and surprising patterns. Experience the process from start to finish, beginning with choosing a pattern and knotting the fabric, and moving to submerging, rinsing, and revealing your work. The organic nature of the dye makes for not only beautiful patterns and shades of blue, but the unique experience of working with a living material from the natural world. Join us outside in the courtyard as we practice an ancient and lively tradition to make bold patterns and gorgeous shades of blue.
Update: this workshop will now take place in the drawing and painting studio
