Events - It Starts with a Tiny Seed

The Rice County Indigo Collective is a group of artists, artisans and crafters who create color for their work with home grown Japanese indigo (Persicaria tinctoria) that they helped grow.  It Starts with a Tiny Seed showcases a variety of techniques and applications of natural dyes.  Artworks by Cheryl Ramette, Emily Donovan, Judith Julig, Judy Saye-Willis, Kay Buxton, Leslie Hall, Sarah Nassif and Tom Willis will be on view:
