Wild Color Workshop with Lou Thorne

This workshop offers an introduction to the practice of finding color within our immediate environment. We'll explore the landscape of the Arboretum to find wild materials suitable for artist pigments, engage in ethical foraging, then learn to process these materials into art supplies such as inks and paints. We will cover a variety of methods and outcomes, guided by participant interest and available materials.
Lou Thorne is a multidisciplinary artist and pigment worker. Her current practice focuses on collaborations with hyper-local materials typically considered invasive, excessive, or otherwise undesired. She lives in the Oblong Valley (Mohican, Munsee Lenape, and Schaghticoke lands).
Registration is required and is free for members and a $10/donation for non-members.
