Stop by our newest location - the Lakewood Lockers at Linc NW - for a family Tie-Dye event!

We will provide all the essentials for dyeing and a limited amount of canvas totes, drawstring bags, and bandanas for you to dye. You are welcome to bring your own small-mid sized item such as a t-shirt (natural fibers work best).

We will provide rubber gloves a well as trash-bags (to use as smocks), but we strongly encourage you to wear old clothing/shoes you wouldn't mind getting dye on - accidents happen!

Registration is recommended, but not required. To register, visit https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/events/6802bbd279b6f832a6d89397

This event will be taking place outside.
