# Event Details - **Event Name**: Eco-Printing - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 23 May, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Sat, 23 May, 2026 at 04:00 pm (-07:00) - **Event Description**: Learn how to create distinctly unique printed fabrics using materials found in nature!About this EventDon’t toss those leaves away! Let’s explore how to use them to make beautiful eco prints using a steam and bundle method on up-cycled cotton fabric. The resulting patterns are an incredible imprint of nature on fabric. All materials will be provided, but you will need to bring impermeable rubber gloves as we will be painting with an iron tea solution - nontoxic but staining. An apron is also suggested. Everyone will have chance to bundle two up cycled cloth strips. The resulting personally altered fabric can be used for creative projects or framed as small art pieces.Note: The workshop fee is representative of a longer workshop then our standard, and includes materials fees. Instructor BioNora Ready is a fibre artist living in Saanich, traditional territory of the W̱SÁNEĆ people. She has a strong interest in slow stitch, botanical dyeing, creative mindful practice and collaborative art projects. She draws inspiration from other artists and cultural practices as well as the land, sea, sky and air.How to Register for this EventThis workshop is happening in person only.

The strawbale learning classroom is accessed via a wooden ramp and has a wide double door and a ramp leading up to it. Once inside everything is flat.There is a single-stall gender neutral washroom on site. The washroom is not wheelchair accessible. There is a steep ramp from the wood chip pathway onto the washroom boardwalk, and a 2-inch step up from the washroom boardwalk into the washroom.About the organizationThe Compost Education Centre is located on unceded and occupied Indigenous territories, the land of the Lekwungen people— specifically the Xwsepsum and Songhees Nations. These nations are two of many, made up of individuals who have lived within the porous boundaries of what is considered Coast Salish, Nuu-Chah-Nulth and Kwakwa'wakw Territory (Vancouver Island) since time immemorial. At the CEC we seek to respect, honour and continually grow our own understandings of Indigenous rights and history, and to fulfill our responsibilities as settlers, who live and work directly with the land and its complex, vital ecologies and our diverse, evolving communities.Compost Education Centre memberships get you free workshops, discounts at garden centres around town and more great perks!

The CEC’s mission is to encourage composting, local food production, and conservation, through education to residents living within the CRD. Created as a community resource, the CEC’s intent is to lower barriers to building skills that support soil stewardship and ecological sustainability. Two of the ways the CEC meets this goal are through free and affordable workshop series for adults, and a diverse, interactive, science-based educational program for students and their teachers. The CEC is mandated to teach people of all ages how to create a biologically active, organic garden amendment, as well as why composting and soil conservation are crucial practices for mitigating climate change.\r\n " } ] } ] ```
