FYI – Bridgton Public Library

Natural Dye Workshop Highlight

06/26/202606/26/2026CommunicationsFYI

Last month, we had a wonderful Natural Dye Workshop hosted by Ray here at the library. Participants learned the art of natural dyeing and explored their creativity by making their own unique pieces. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the program such a meaningful and colorful experience.

If you didn’t get a chance to attend and you’re inspired and or you did and would like to explore this at home, we have some great books available to help you learn more. Ray has selected a variety of titles to guide you further into the world of natural dyes and fiber arts. Stop by the library to browse the collection and check out a book to take home.

We’d also love to see what you create! Share photos of your projects with us at publicity@bridgtonlibrary.org for a chance to be featured on our social media pages.

We can’t wait to see your work!
