Learn the basics of natural dyeing with Korie Ellis, a natural plant dyer based out of New Bedford, Massachusetts. Korie will teach participants the basics of plant dying using, repurposed onion skins. Participants will be guided and encouraged to explore their sense of play while learning how to repurpose materials that would often be discarded after a family meal. This workshop aims to spark interest in the mundane and open each person’s eyes to the color potential that exists all around us. Participants will leave with a dyed tote bag. All materials are included.

Korie Ellis is a natural dyer who uses a diverse range of plant materials to create color on textiles. She is curious about the relationship between the environment and fashion, which has dictated her to focus on regenerative design.
