Shibori Dyeing Workshop with Chris Hurwitz

Explore indigo blue-dyeing methods popularized in Japan in this hands-on workshop.

Participants will bring their own prewashed, 100% cotton, silk, or linen items to dye, such as a T-shirt, scarf, baby clothes, table napkins, or pillow covers. Please bring small items that will fit in the communal dye bath. Chris will also provide items to be dyed for the Bazaar sale.

Dharma Trading Co. in San Rafael is a wonderful local resource for natural-fiber white clothing and other items to dye.

Bring a sack lunch to enjoy while your projects soak. Wear old clothes or dark colors. Rubber gloves will be provided.

The workshop is limited to 10 participants, ages 12 and up, with or without previous experience. Come experiment with indigo and discover the beautiful possibilities of this ancient dyeing tradition.
