Interested in learning about natural dyes? Join instructor Katelyn Patton to learn about the different colors that can be derived from common weedy plants like buckthorn and pokeweed as we use the forest as a resource for material. We will go over the process of natural dyeing from start to finish. Class will start with an information session at the Art Center and proceed to private property just outside Buchanan. Bring your own transportation. Dress to forage: hats, gloves, sturdy shoes or boots, sunscreen and water. If participants have pruners or choppers that is helpful, but not necessary. A light lunch will be provided or you are free to bring your own. Participants will each take home one cotton and one silk bandana dyed with different colors and treatments.
