Tie-dye Open Studio & Beginning Flagging Class
Sunday March 4th
Tie-dye Open Studio & Beginning flagging class, noon to sunset
1333 Skiles Street, hosted by Phillip Bryan
Have you seen, from time to time, the very colorful flags hanging in the park and wondered about the occasion? Our
neighbor, Phillip Bryan, has taught workshops on tie-dyeing silk since 2001, and welcomes anyone would like to learn the skill. If you would like to dye your own flags, Phillip will be hosting another event on Sunday, March 4th beginning at 12:00 noon in his driveway at 1333 Skiles, weather permitting.
If you would like to attend, bring $20 to buy two yards of silk that you will be dyeing and taking home with you. All other materials, dyes, gloves, and tools are provided, and there will be several instructors present to help you. Phillip will hold a brief “how to” workshop that will include spiral and mandella folding techniques and will guide you through the process as you are dyeing your silk.
The workshop will be open until sunset, to allow participants to create as many sets as they want. Spectators are welcome. If you choose not to dye your own silk but enjoy the beautiful colors, there will also be a free movement
class in Exall Park (Skiles @ Bryan) during this time. This will be a big social event. Bring your food, drinks, and fun. So, come on out and join the fun.
The group will also be participating in Bridge-O-Rama, celebrating the opening of the Margaret Hunt-Hill Bridge March 2-4. For more information, please go online to http://bridge-o-rama.com/ and http://www.mhhbridgecelebration.com/ .
