About this event

Learn about the art of indigo and shibori by dyeing a silk scarf in this hands-on, educational workshop.

Indigo is one of the oldest plant-based dyes and one of the few sources of naturally occurring blue pigment. Using it takes some special knowledge and technique.

Join us for a lesson in indigo dyeing, where we will show you the process of creating an indigo dye vat, followed by a demonstration of shibori tie-dye techniques.

Instructor: Jackie Lebouitz, chemicals in the environment agent, UF/IFAS Extension Sarasota County
