Dyeing with Roots and Blooms: An Introduction to Natural Dyeing, with Cayetano Talavera

  • Hammer Museum 10899 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles, CA, 90024 United States (map)

Work with fiber artist and fashion designer Cayetano Talavera to learn to extract dyes from madder roots and marigolds as we explore the art of natural dyeing.
