Art Events in Sun Valley

Join Linda Illumanardi for a delightful day of learning to fold tricky Victorian Puzzle books. Fill your puzzle creations with California native leaves and wild flowers, then immerse the piece into a bubbling pot of natural dye. Experimenting with various types and weights, we will design with two different papers and sizes to see the MAGIC that happens after the reveal!

Join us this February as we familiarize ourselves with oak galls. Explore the surprising alchemy of making natural pigments from locally sourced materials. In this workshop we will make oak gall ink, a purple-black or brown-black ink made from iron salts mixed with the tannic acid from oak galls. At the end of the workshop we’ll use oak gall ink to make drawings of acorns from close observation.
