SUMMARY:Community Dye Day
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a community dye day! Bring a plain white article that is 100% cotton such as a t-shirt\, bandana\, or tote bag. Drop it off in our indigo pot at the beginning of your self-guided tour. When you are done walking through the museum\, you’ll be able to pick up your dyed piece! Make sure to bring a bag to take it home in–it will still be damp!
