Shibori: Creative Textile Design (Family)

Family Classes -

Winter 2023

Fee is for one adult and one child. Please register under adult’s name.

Come explore shibori, a surprisingly easy and wonderfully addictive ancient Japanese hand-dyeing technique that involves folding, twisting, or bunching cloth and binding it, then dipping it in indigo dye. Experiment with cotton as the canvas and enjoy seeing the variety of patterns created by your classmates using the identical techniques. Each pair will leave with beautiful shibori items and detailed instructions to practice your new skills on your own. Ages 7+
