Come to a Free craft workshop for 2 to 5 year olds at The William Morris Gallery to make a beautiful Rangoli style motif to take home. We will be natural dying rice and making Rangoli patterns in clay.
Inspired by William Morris’s love of natural dyes and symmetry we will celebrate Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights.

‘Eyebright’ was designed by William Morris in 1883. The pattern was achieved using the indigo-discharge process and weld for the buttercups, both natural dyes from flowers or plants.
