Growing Colour Together Partnership

YVAN are proud to be supporting WOVEN’s Growing Colour Together project through artist mentoring and marketing support Join in with Growing Colour Together! This WOVEN in Kirklees 2023 project aims to create a district- wide, natural dye, colour garden.

Everyone from Kirklees is invited to get involved, helping to create dye gardens anywhere and everywhere, working with six local and international artists commissioned to create events, installations and more for 2023. Working in partnership across the district, WOVEN is giving everyone the opportunity to ‘have a grow’, use what’s grown to make natural dyes and learn about the environmental implications of chemical dyes and what we buy. A natural dye garden gives eco-friendly, natural dye pigments and stains for textiles, knitting yarns, and even artist paints and prints. Growing Colour Together natural dye colour gardens can be of any size and WOVEN encourages everyone to get growing, from absolute beginners to those with lots of growing experience.

If you have a window ledge, pot, garden, allotment, school garden, community space… now is the time to get started. Watch the latest film by WOVEN to find out more about the project. Find out more here: https://woveninkirklees.co.uk/project... Instagram: @WovenInKirklees Twitter: @WovenInKirklees
