Open to both adults and their children, discover the vibrant world of natural dyeing in this hands-on workshop with Rebecca from Keeping Still Studio. Learn how to transform what’s growing around us—flowers, leaves, and other natural materials—into beautiful, eco-friendly prints & dyes. Participants will learn how to coax colours and patterns from plants while creating their own unique fabric samples. Whether you’re a seasoned crafter or new to the art of dyeing, this workshop offers a creative and sustainable way to connect with nature’s rich colour palette.
Rebecca Duyzer is a multi-passionate artist living on Turtle Island near Lake Karegnondi aka Huron, often working in the realms of plant and textile alchemy. You’ll find her with many pots on the stove and many projects on the go. She loves sharing craft and song in community. Rebecca loves colour especially when it’s gifted by a plant & loves to spread this magical joy.
