Discover the beauty and alchemy of natural dyeing in our hands-on workshops rooted in color, craft, and slow making. Using plant-based dyes and traditional techniques, participants will learn how color is extracted from nature and transformed onto cloth.

We’ll cover the fundamentals of natural dyeing, including fiber types, mordanting, dye preparation, and basic dye-bath methods. Participants will experiment with botanical dyes and explore how subtle shifts in process—time, temperature, and plant material—create a wide range of hues and textures. Each student will dye their own textile samples or a finished piece to take home.

This workshop is perfect for beginners as well as those curious to deepen their relationship with color, sustainability, and handmade textiles. Expect an exploratory, process-focused experience that blends science, intuition, and creativity.
