[FULL] Native Plant Dye Workshop with Trudy Barnes

Come explore the hidden color in our landscape by learning about native plants and their potential for dyeing. We will discuss how to forage local plants responsibly as well as how to broaden your color palette using modifiers. Participants will come away with a selection of botanically-dyed samples as well as a finished textile and instructions on how to repeat the process at home. All materials provided.

Trudy Barnes is a visual artist working with textiles and printmaking. She uses natural dyeing to explore connections to place. Her recent work has concentrated on dyes native to her new home in Southern California.
