This is the second event in a series of Natural Dye Workshops with artist Madelaine Corbin.
Get ready to learn more about the fascinating world of natural dye at Pine Meadow Ranch Center for Arts & Agriculture.

Dive into the technical processes behind natural color, where it comes from, and how to fasten it to fiber. This one-day workshop will focus on the dye process from start to finish. Participants will prepare their cloth samples using non-toxic mordants, build communal dye pots made from flowers grown at Pine Meadow Ranch, and dye both plant and protein fibers. Participants will leave with two finished textiles and a natural dye journal of swatches documenting the interaction between mordant, fiber type, and dye.
All skill levels are welcome to join!
