Next Meeting: 19 September 2026
Speaker: Cassie Quinn
We are excited to host the upcoming talk and workshop on Natural Dye and Printmaking: Colour from Nature with Cassie Quinn from CQ Studio. The cost of the workshop is £20 and includes all materials - please see the workshop details below.
Natural Dye & Printmaking: Colour from Nature
This hands-on workshop explores natural colour systems derived from plants, food waste, and algae. Participants will experiment with dyeing and printmaking techniques to create one-of-a-kind placemats or napkins, while learning how colour can be extracted, layered, and fixed using low-impact processes. The session explores pigment as a local, seasonal, and regenerative resource.
Due to the nature of this workshop it is limited to 35 participants, so registration is required. The deadline for sign up is the 8th September. Please email [email protected] Once spots fill up, we will open a waitlist in case anyone cancels. If you sign up but later find out you cannot make it, please let us know immediately so we can give your spot to someone on the waitlist.
