In this class, we'll learn how to dye fabric from kitchen scraps like black beans and onion skins and use iron printing paste to screenprint custom designs onto naturally dyed fabric. In the first session, students will learn how to dye fabric in a pot of black beans or onion skins and create screens for screenprinting. We'll also head over to the Da Vinci Art Alliance to tour The Philly Dye Club's show "A Shared Table," where we'll have time for a Q & A with some of the artists that are instructing the workshop. This workshop is inspired by the show! In the second session, students will have time to dye more fabric and print on their fabric using iron mordant printing paste.

Philly Dye Club will be represented by Laura Hricko, Angela Mcquillan, Cait Nolan, Miriam Singer, Mary Smull, Cindy Stockton Moore, Caresh Toatley.
