All the Colors Under the Sun

Cape Girardeau Conservation Nature Center
Registration period: March 7 - June 5
What do the sun, a glass jar, and a marigold have in common? Not much but you can put them together and sun dye.
Sun dyeing is a process of using solar radiation as your heat source to transfer colors from a plant to your fiber.
Join us for this opportunity to experiment using natural materials, dyestuffs, to dye fibers. All supplies are provided for this program; however, if you would like to try more than one dyestuff you will need to bring in a glass jar with a secure lid that holds at least 1/2 gallon of liquid.
