Tett Centre Resident Studio Artist, Bethany Garner, brings this TWO-DAY Workshop to students at the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning in Kingston, ON, on January 21st and 22nd, 2023 in the Rehearsal Hall on the Second Level of this dynamic Arts Hub.

Fabric dyeing is a passion for many local artists, and we welcome newcomers to join us as the workshop days open opportunities for building a personal stash of beautiful, hand-designed OMBRE effects on cotton, linen, and silk cloth using the inspiration of samples shared by the Instructor. Students will also have the opportunity to use thickened dyes for painting on their cloth.

The skills acquired will start newcomers on a path to creativity and learning as they start a new adventure in the workshop classroom. Seasoned arts students and beginners are welcome.

Students will bring their own cloth, pre-washed and dried, ready to dye as well as a plastic table cover and old towels for the floor. Containers to take wet cloth home are needed. Beth will have ready-to-dye white cotton lawn cloth will be available for students at the workshop at $12.mtr. paid to the Instructor. (Or you can pre-order cloth two weeks before the workshop)

There are no workshop refunds, but if your plans change, you may offer your ticket to a friend or family.

While the Tett Centre does not have a mask mandate required, we welcome you to join us with masks on if you like, as there may be close contact during the workshop. We will set up tables for safe distancing in the classroom.

The classes run from Saturday, January 21 at 10 am through to January 22, 2023, Sunday at 5 pm

Hope to see you join in on the fun...the beautiful cloth and smiles are worth the investment and time!!
