Natural Dyes Workshop for Stockton Alumni’s Second Saturdays
John F. Scarpa Academic Center, 3711 Atlantic Avenue, Atlantic City
Saturday, April 12 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Noyes staff will be on-site Stockton Atlantic City campus (3711 Atlantic Avenue, Atlantic City, NJ 08401) for Stockton University’s Alumni.

Celebrate AAPIH month! Experiment with Japanese resist techniques and indigo dye in this introductory shibori workshop led by Sarah Lacy of the Noyes Museum of Art of Stockton University. All ages and abilities are welcome to attend this 2-hour workshop. Learn about the history and famous patterns created with shibori techniques before experimenting with resist materials and indigo dye. All participants will walk away with their own bandana or canvas tote bag, as well as literature on the history of the Japanese craft.

It’s recommended to wear paint clothes for this workshop – it can get messy!

Small trash bags will be provided for participants to bring their wet bandanas or tote home safely without dripping.

Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AAPIH) is nationally celebrated in May, but due to classes ending in early May, Stockton University celebrates AAPIH Month in April.
