SUMMARY:Introduction to Mushroom Dye and Mushroom Paper Making
DESCRIPTION:Discover the surprising\, beautiful world of fungi-based art in this hands-on\, two-hour\, and two-part workshop led by local mycophiles Liz & Enrique. \nYou’ll explore two modern takes on these ancient crafts. Liz will lead you through dyeing fabric with wild mushroom pigments while Enrique explains the art making paper from fungal fibers. And best yet\, all will be done using mushrooms foraged right here in California. \nMushroom Dyeing with Liz\nA forager and herbalist from Vallejo\, Liz will walk you through the full natural dye process: which California mushrooms she uses\, where to find them\, how to prepare dye baths\, and how mordants work to fix color onto fiber. She’ll be showcasing two different colors\, and you’ll get hands-on time at the dye pots and take home a hand-dyed silk scarf as your souvenir. \nWant to bring something special? You’re welcome to bring your own silk\, felt\, or wool piece to dye instead. \nMushroom Paper Making with Enrique\nUsing wild-foraged artist conks and red-belted conks\, Enrique will demonstrate how paper is crafted from fungal slurry. You’ll learn about the fungal characteristics along with using traditional screens and deckles\, all explained with examples from various stages of drying. \nThis element is also hands-on as you’ll have a chance at making your own sheet and take home a piece of real mushroom paper. \nAll supplies for both are included. Book recommendations are provided. A Vitamix appearance may or may not happen. \nThe workshop will be held at The Meeting Place\, an inspiring and airy creative space in the Castro Valley Marketplace. \nSpots are limited and we expect this will fill up. \nGet your spot today.
