Gathering Craft
Craft by hand. Gather by heart.
A monthly gathering where traditional crafts, shared meals, meditation, song, and story invite us to slow down, create something beautiful, and remember the joy of making together.
Explore September
Colors of the season
Natural Dyeing
As summer softens toward autumn, we gather to discover the hidden colors held within leaves, flowers, bark, and roots.
Together we will prepare natural pigments, dye cloth with the colors of the season, share stories and song, enjoy a nourishing meal, and settle into the quiet pleasure of making with our own hands.
No previous experience is needed. The gathering is designed to welcome both first-time makers and experienced craftspeople.
