Join the Tokyo Advanced Indigo Dyeing Aizome Class to learn about Japanese Indigo and create your original design on linen. We will use a washi glue resist to create the designs and then dye the fabric in indigo.  Classes on 10/26 and 12/2.

Private Indigo Party for Groups of 6-10. Students will be provided with a 1-meter long piece of linen to dye.  The linen can be used for artwork, a table runner, napkins and more.
