Workshops for families

ECOPRINT

This initiative will introduce the participating families to the eco-printing technique, a botanical printing method of producing  textile designs taking their inspiration from nature. The families will create their own print, stamping the fabric with the colour, outline and texture of tinctorial materials including leaves, flowers, bark or stalks. Create your own unrepeatable piece, with an unpredictable result!
