Led by Gutierrez Hubbell House contributor Kayln Finnell, in this workshop attendees will dye fabric together with cochineal insects, which live on the pads of the nopal and have been harvested for dyeing for centuries. While getting their our hands dirty, festival goers will learn about the history of dyeing with cochineal, as well as the processes involved in natural dyeing.
