Adults and Senior High youth are invited to join us for an evening celebrating the abundance of the season with a special art event, Nature’s Imprint: Eco Printing Art & Dinner. This gathering combines the beauty of nature, the joy of creative spiritual practices, and the delight of community and a shared meal.
You’ll learn how to harness the vibrant colors and intricate patterns found in leaves, flowers, and other botanical elements through eco printing, an art form that uses natural materials to create stunning prints on fabric and paper. No prior experience is necessary – just bring your enthusiasm and a sense of wonder!
We’ll provide dinner, brief tutorials, and materials to get you started, but participants are also invited to bring materials from home to use or share.
Suggested Items:
- Leaves (especially those rich in tannins): blackberry, maple, oak, birch, alder, sumac, walnut, eucalyptus, rose, ferns
- Flowers: catmint, marigolds, coreopsis, calendula, pansies, rose, rudbeckia, violets, daisies, petunias, dandelions
