Transforming Food Scraps into Natural Paints!

Join Sammy and Lauren to explore some of the vast colourful potential in some easy-to-come-by food scraps. We will process various food scraps and explore how to make ink/paints, preserve inks and play with fun ways to modify the colours using wood ash and vinegar.

Please bring along a notebook you could paint in (we will have some extra watercolour paper incase) and paintbrushes if you have them as well as a few small jars or sealed containers to take some ink home.

This workshop is $5 and registration is required here.

Email spoonvolunteers@gmail.com if you have any questions or if the cost is a barrier.

Join the collective decision-making and annual review of the Seasoned Spoon co-operative café. Help elect board members, hear our updates, and contribute to the conversation! We will be gathering in the cafe for our AGM, followed by a meal.
