Free Workshop - Papermaking and experimenting with plant-based dyes

On 23 & 24 August, from 10:00–18:00, join us in the gardens of De Proef, in Drenthe, Netherlands for a free, walk-in workshop exploring plant-based dyeing and papermaking.

Drop in anytime to work with earth-bound materials in a slow, hands-on process that weaves together material heritage and material innovation. De Proef is accessible by bike, bus, or car. Find out more by registering for free here!

The workshop is facilitated by Potgrond and Materials for Future.

✨ *Potgrond* (Nina Litsios and Ronja Kops) brings attention to the layered stories and sensory experiences rooted in the gardens of Frederiksoord — inviting visitors to engage more deeply with the site and the ecological and cultural questions that grow from it.
✨ *Materials for Future* is a collective and collaborative platform created by Guoda Treciokaite and Nina Canova. Together, they explore topics of regenerative design and innovative materials. They create workshops, events, micro-documentaries and written articles around these topics for community building and knowledge sharing purposes.
