If you cook you produce food waste. Imagine transforming that waste into dye. Join the Refugee Collective on Saturday, April 26 (10am-12pm) for a natural dye workshop where you’ll learn the art of natural dye and practical ways to save and transform food waste into dye stuffs. A limited number of bandannas for dying will be provided to attendees. It is encouraged to bring one 100% cotton clothing item to dye as well.

This event is organized in partnership with the Refugee Collective and generously funded in part by a grant from the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience (ICSC). The Refugee Collective employs refugees and immigrants in fair-wage, dignified work through two social enterprises: a textile manufacturing studio and an organic farm. ICSC is a global network of historic sites and museums that empowers communities to share stories of past trauma to prevent conflicts and human rights abuses today. Learn more about their work at www.therefugeecollective.org and  www.sitesofconscience.org.
