Botanically Dyed Eggs Workshop
5:30 PM – 7:00 PM
909 Robert D. Ray Dr, Des Moines, IA
This hands-on workshop explores the chemistry and history of plant-based dyes. Participants use natural botanical materials—such as onion skins, cabbage, and turmeric—to create intricate and organic patterns on spring eggs. It is a lesson in sustainable art and traditional domestic science, offering a vibrant alternative to synthetic dyes. Families and individuals can explore how different plant pigments react to create a spectrum of colors, establishing a new, nature-focused tradition for the spring season.
