Natural Dyes of Native Plants

Have you ever wondered how to create vibrant, natural colour without synthetic dyes? Join us for a hands-on natural dyeing workshop, led by Bristol-based textile artist and author Ria Burns.

You’ll discover how native and homegrown plants can be used to dye yarn in a beautiful range of hues, and learn techniques you can take home and try yourself. Suitable for complete beginners and confident crafters alike, this workshop connects creativity with the natural world right on your doorstep.

You’ll leave with samples, know-how, and a new appreciation for the colours growing all around us.

Free event but you need to book here.

This event is part of the Festival of Nature Community Programme, which has over 80 events happening across nine days from 6-14 June. Find out more about the events happening on your doorstep here or follow on social media @FestOfNature #FestivalofNature
