Indigo Hands - Storytime and Activity with Sita Singh
About this Event
An Indian girl accompanies her grandfather to his indigo studio, where she learns, step-by-step, how to dye cloth--and her hands!--the color of the midnight sky.
Tombolo Books welcomes children's author Sita Singh to the bookstore to celebrate her beautiful new picture book, Indigo Hands! Singh will be joined by local textile designer Veronica Buitron to help attendees create a small indigo-dyed keepsake and experience the wonder of watching the fabric transform from green to a brilliant blue!
This touching intergenerational story, accompanied by vibrant artwork, celebrates passing down a beloved tradition and showcases the how-tos of a unique and important craft.
Sita Singh writes heart-warming stories with a South Asian backdrop. She is the author of Birds of a Feather, illustrated by Stephanie Fizer Coleman, which was a Dolly Parton Imagination Library selection. Her picture book Mango Memories was published by Anne Schwartz Books in Spring 2024. Born and raised in Ahmedabad, India, Sita now lives in South Florida with her family.
