Bògòlanfini, or mud cloth, originated in Mali and is one of Africa's most unusual and unique textile arts. In this workshop led by textile artist Arlette Ngung, you'll travel back in time to learn traditional textile painting techniques that use natural plant dyes and fermented mud. You will then have an opportunity to create your own piece by reinterpreting techniques learned with tools you can find in your own home!
A list for supplies will be sent out to participants 2 days before- supplies are those readily available in your home.
