Lori Beilby, a Riverside fiber artist will be leading this workshop on natural dyeing fabric with plants that are easy to grow in your own yard. This fun and easy workshop is designed for individuals seeking their first natural dye experience, and/or those who are curious about fresh leaf indigo. 

Be prepared to experience some plant magic as you learn to dye cloth with indigo leaves and marigolds transforming your material into beautiful shades of blues and yellows. You will also be learning to create patterns with simple tie and resist techniques.

Each participant will receive 1 cotton and 1 silk bandana. A limited amount of additional small fabric items will be available for purchase. Please do NOT bring your own items to dye.

*Your payment helps enable residents of the adjacent Bell Shelter to attend these workshops free of charge.
