First Thursday Natural Dyeing Workshop
Save the date for our next First Thursday event on September 3rd!

Time: 5pm to 7:30pm
Location: El Paseo Courtyard, Santa Barbara

Can't make it on 9/3? Save the date for a full-day natural dyeing workshop with Zapotec artisan Samuel Bautista Lazo on October 12, location TBD.
