Join us at Hoffman Center for the Arts this Saturday, July 15, from 7:00-9:00 pm for The Devil’s Dye – Stories of Indigo with local artist and dyer Iris Sullivan Daire!
Plant based Indigo Blue has a long and complicated story with humans. Our obsession with this color has uplifted it to the realm of the sacred and justified some of the most horrific actions in history. In this talk we will learn a bit about the plants at the center of these many stories, about how indigo might be the common thread that can help us face what has come before, and find our way through the complex times we are living in now.
The annual community show at the Hoffman Gallery will use the indigo as the theme in January 2024, so this is a great opportunity to get some inspiration and get those creative juices flowing!
