Botanical Ink-Making Workshop
Athy, Co. Kildare
20 July - 17 October 2025
Family friendly
Have you ever wondered how inks & paints are made? Harness the power of botanical plants when you join a botanical ink making workshop at the Blueway Art Studio

Create your own natural, botanical ink using materials foraged from the local trees and plants. Forage for colour, learn how to forage sustainably, identify key plants for colour, how to start a dye garden and manage invasious native species such woad.

A growing interest in sustainability and natural materials has brought traditional ink-making skills back into the spotlight, reminding us that we can look to our local landscapes for resources as well as inspiration!

We work with the seasons.
