Overview

Learn How to Utilize Plant Color Alchemy!

With Victoria Larnach

Join us for a journey of plant alchemy color from Mother Nature! We will be bundle dyeing with seasonal plants & compost scraps from the kitchen & garden, creating various surface designs & pigment color on select fabric.

Participants will learn different methods of extracting color from plants & flowers, as we explore a natural palette as an alternative to chemical dyeing, while addressing issues and challenges around sustainability within the textile industry.

Each participant will leave with dyed samples & several unique, ready-to-wear project pieces. Come see what’s available in the world of color around us!

Each piece she creates reflects our connection to Earth, our relationships to culture, and the impact we have on world around us.
