Workshop Description: In this workshop, students will learn how to make botanical inks using easily-sourced local plants and materials. Discover how to harvest and collect materials, prepare the inks, and use them for a variety of applications. There will also be time to experiment with the inks made in class using brushes on paper. These inks can also be used with dip pens. Students will get to keep four small bottles of ink to take home with them.

All materials will be provided.
