Taught by fiber artist and natural dyes devotee Eric Guy
In this one-day make-and-take workshop, you will harness color fresh from the earth with immediate results! Step into the dye garden and learn about growing and harvesting these colorful companions, practice flower-pounding with the foliage and flora, and create keepsake cloths laden with memories of the summertime.
All materials and tools provided. Each student will leave with bandana-sized pieces of mordanted silk and cotton, as well as additional scrap pieces for practice and play.
The workshop will be held in Eric Guy’s backyard in Albany Park, located off of the Brown Line. Street parking is typically available nearby. The address will be sent out by email the day before. Workshop is accesible at ground level with a single restroom available in a second-floor walk-up. Masks are optional & encouraged.
