About this Event
Refresh your threads with professional, safe, fiber reactive dyes! Taught by Jessica Kaufman of WAXON Studio, you will learn about dye chemistry, how patterns are made, and choose from a variety of patterns and manipulations to dye your items.
BYO shirts, bibs, socks, totes, tea towels - whatever ties your dye! Don't have anything to refresh? Add on an Asheville Tool Library t-shirt with your ticket to dye and take home with you while supplies last. Bring a plastic bag large enough to hold items for safe transport home. Dyes only work on natural fibers (cotton, linen, hemp, bamboo, rayon, viscose, modal, etc.), are safe for city or septic systems, and will not bleed or fade.
What to Wear / Safety Notes: Please wear clothing that can get stained, and comfy shoes for standing. This is a hands-on workshop.
Skill Level: Beginner but all are welcome.
Age Requirement: Participants must be 18 or older.

Equitable Access We believe everyone deserves access to hands-on learning opportunities, regardless of income. That's why each workshop includes a limited number of Equitable Access seats.
To help us share these opportunities widely:
- Each participant may claim an Equitable Access seat once per quarter (every three months).
- These spots are first-come, first-served and limited by class size.
- If you've already used an equitable seat this quarter, we ask that you register at full price so others can benefit.
Please only claim these tickets if cost is truly a barrier for you — this helps ensure that those who need the support most can take part.
