Creating textiles from natural dyes is a laborious process involving cultivation, harvest, textile preparation, and dye extraction. Cornell Professor Denise Green and students in her Natural Dye Studio course designed textiles in brilliant hues of yellows, reds, greens, blues, purples, and more. These naturally dyed textiles made from a range of plants, including marigold, sunflower, and Japanese indigo are on display through June 2018.

Opening Reception: Meet professor Denise Green and students who will share the various techniques used to create the pieces in this exhibit. Light refreshments will be served.

Date/time: Wednesday, February 7; 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Cost: Free and open to the public.
Location: Nevin Welcome Center
