Botanical Dyeing & Textile Printmaking Workshop

Botanical Dyeing & Textile Printmaking Workshop

Overview

Explore the exciting world of textile art through botanical dyeing and fabric printmaking. All ages welcome!

Nature has been making art long before we thought to join in. In this hands-on, exploratory workshop, you'll tap into the surprising creative potential of leaves, flowers, and plant matter — and discover just how bold and beautiful natural materials can be on fabric.

Using eco dyeing techniques and handmade printmaking stamps, you'll experiment with colour, pattern, and texture to create textiles that are entirely your own. There are no wrong results here — just happy surprises and the quiet delight of watching nature do something unexpected. The session balances guided instruction with plenty of open-ended exploration, so whether you like to follow the process or go off-script, you'll find your rhythm here.

Best part? Everything you make goes home with you.

Who is this for:

This workshop is a wonderful choice for anyone who loves nature, making, or trying something completely new. Kids and adults are equally at home here — the curiosity required is the only thing you need to bring. All ages are welcome (recommended 6 and up), and no prior experience is needed whatsoever.

Location & Experience:

Held in the artist's converted garage studio, this intimate creative space is designed to make you feel welcome the moment you walk through the door — a truly local, one-of-a-kind experience. Further access details will be provided upon your booking confirmation.
