Hapa Zome Botanical Printing

Hapa Zome Botanical Printing

September 26

Hammers ready. Tap tap tap! Release stress and vibrant plant pigments with artist and natural dyer Sophia Haas.

Sophia will teach us the eco-printing technique known as hapa zome, where the pigments from fresh botanicals are transferred directly to cloth or paper by pounding with a hammer or stone. Workshop attendees will each print a silk or cotton scarf to take with them at the end of class. 

Date: Thursday, September 26
Time: 7:00-9:00 PM
Location: Cardinal Gift Shop

What's Included:

  • Silk and cotton scarves (we'll have extras for sale if you want to print more than one)
  • Flowers, leaves and other plant parts
  • Printing/pounding tools (hammers, mallets)

This workshop is open to all skill levels. All materials will be provided.
