Discover the variations of nature’s color while experimenting with everyday kitchen foodstuff. During the workshop participants will learn the lingo, safety procedures, preparation of fiber and dyestuff, how to extract color, and post-dye treatment.
We will have a limited selection of dye material available. Should visitors want to achieve a certain color, participants are welcome to bring clean foodstuff.
Included in the workshop are two worsted wool skeins to dye. Additional skeins can be purchased the day of the workshop at the Museum Store located inside the Visitor Center.
