SUMMARY:Natural Dye Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Most natural dyes come from plant sources like roots\, berries\, bark\, and leaves\, as well as other biological sources such as fungi. These dyes are biodegradable\, non-toxic\, and non-allergenic. They also have a much lower environmental impact compared to synthetic dyes. \nSo get hands on with natural dyes and create your own bundle-dyed silk square. Unlike standard dip dyeing\, bundle dyeing allows you to arrange flowers\, petals\, leaves\, herbs\, and vegetables directly onto the fabric. This hands-on approach produces intricate patterns and a stunning array of colors\, bringing nature’s beauty to life in your unique creation. \n\nJuly 27\, 3pm – 6pm\n$77 – all materials included\nTeens and adults\nRVAC Kitchen Studios | 320 Wilson st.\nParticipants may choose to let their silk squares air dry at home\, or at the gallery for future collection\n\nTo book head to: \nwww.revelstokeartgallery.ca/education
