Dye Garden Tour

Join local artist Isobel Denton @abitmoreink for a tour of her natural dye garden.

Isobel is a freelance textile practitioner working under the name of ‘abitmoreink’ specialising in traditional and heritage craft practices particularly focusing on creating natural inks and dyes for textile and paper application. She has created her own colour dye garden with specialist plants which she uses in her practice.

During this session you will be guided through a relaxing tour of her natural dye garden, learn about the plants she grows, how she grows them, their life cycle and colour pigment properties for natural dyes. Become inspired and explore the possibilities of growing your own dye garden. We will explore her textile studio and her artwork. There will be dye plants and bundle dye kits for sale.

Sign up to one of the open garden slots during the day and come along to learn more about natural dyes, explore the plants she grows and their natural dye properties.
