Basic Indigo Dying

August 1, 9:00am - 12:00pm
Mānoa Campus, Lyon Arboretum, 3860 Manoa Rd.

Indigo is the universal hue of hand woven, hand dyed and re-stitched fabrics. From desert Tuareg tribes, to the 14th generation of Kyoto dyers, to the manufacturers of denim jeans, indigo rules! Learn how to permanently dye fabrics. Use resist methods of tie dye binding and clamping objects to create patterns. Control hue density with multiple dyeing submersions. The instructor, Ann Asakura, is indigo dyer for 30 years, and the Executive Director of Temari. This class is offered in partnership with TEMARI, Center for Asian and Pacific Arts. Class fee: $45 (plus $10 supply fee to be paid to the instructor at the class). Pre-registration required.
