Explore Fabric Painting!
Jul 21 @ 11:30 am – 12:30 pm

This is a fascinating project, draw on cotton fabric, add the alcohol/vinegar blend and watch the magic happen! During the workshop we will experiment with designing and blending permanent markers with rubbing alcohol and vinegar creating a watercolor effect.  We will each use a variety of permanent markers and recycled objects to make our own colorful creation and while still wet, the work may be taken home at the end of the workshop. A caregiver must be present for children under the age of 10 to help with the project. Wear an old shirt to protect your clothing. Ages 5+ Registration required

Scrunch Painting a Silk Scarf-Teen Workshop!
Jul 21 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm

This in-person session is for teens only. Registration is required. Click here to register.

Ideal for the beginner, no experience necessary!

We will discuss colors and how to blend them in a successful manner using a permanent, high chroma, highly transparent liquid fabric paint. Instructions will be given for a step by step “tie dye style” creative process and each participant will go home with a beautiful, wearable creation. At the end of the workshop each participant will take home their scarf and allow it to dry overnight. Once the piece is dry, it can be ironed on the silk setting to permanently set the colors.

The scarf is 100% silk with a hand rolled (hand sewn) hem and 8” x 54”. The participants will need a minimum of 3 feet working space. Bring an old shirt to protect your clothing. Ages 12-18.
