Shibori is an age-old Japanese resist dyeing technique that beautifully merges artistry with craftsmanship. It offers a creative way to express oneself through the manipulation of fabric, resulting in truly one-of-a-kind pieces. This practice shows how timeless traditions continue to hold relevance in today’s world, inviting us to pause, slow down, and discover the beauty and magic in something new.

    Where to get dyes and supplies in your city.

The takeaway -

Each participant will leave with enough knowledge about Shibori and the dyeing process, to make beautiful pieces of art in the comfort of their own home. They will also get to take home all their samples and handouts outlining what was learnt in the workshop.
