Shibori: Indigo Vats and Food Scraps with NYC Parks

  • The Healing Garden 426 Beach 36th Street Queens, NY, 11691 United States (map)

Join NYC Parks GreenThumb for a fabric dying workshop at The Healing Garden.

Learn Shibori — enter the world of pattern and surprise. Folding, tying, stitching, and pressing your fabric, you’ll prepare a tote bag for resist dyeing. We’ll dip into a deep blue indigo vat and experiment with subtle hues from avocado pits and carrot tops. The unveiling of your cloth—always a moment of wonder—connects you to a long lineage of global textile traditions while leaving you with a functional, one-of-a-kind piece.
