I recently received a grant from the Surface Design Association which will cover the tools and materials for a two-day natural dye workshop for low income individuals.  I am volunteering my time so that means I am able to offer it for free to scholarship students!  Others are invited to participate for only $75.  Are you in?  Scroll down for time and location details.

Please send this newsletter to any organization or individual you think might want to participate, too.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP//

NATURAL DYEING & SURFACE DESIGN WORKSHOP
Two Tuesdays, September 22nd & 29th 4:30-7:30 
@ Grace Church Van Vorst Jersey City @ Grove St PATH.  
Students must commit to coming to both Tuesdays.
You will go home with multiple silk scarves as well as stretched silk on canvas designed by you using natural dyeing, botanical printing and shibori techniques taught by Janna.

By way of funding from the Surface Design Association and sponsorship from Grace Church Van Vorst there are a number of scholarship positions for people in financial need.  Additional spots are available for only $75 including materials. Scholarship spots are available on a first come first serve basis HERE where you will register for the 'SDA scholarship' option and use the notes section to state why you require financial support.  The following is a (non-exclusive) list of ways that you may qualify for a scholarship. You will receive confirmation of enrolment within two days of applying.

ABOUT THE ACCESS ART PROJECT//

This workshop is a part of the Access Art Project which makes art education available to low income individuals in the form of free workshops by way of financial support from granting bodies and sponsors.  After designing and organizing a comprehensive workshop based on skills that I can personally volunteer my time for I seek out financial support so that people who would otherwise be unable to afford extracurricular art classes may take them at no cost.

Feel free to email me with any questions and below are two posters in PDF form if you know of good place to post it - and thanks!
