Join the Kaw Point Fibershed at our yearly in-person fall gathering! This year we will be dyeing bandanas using natural dyes in a workshop led by local dye expert, Jenny Brown, of 316 Dye Studio.
The event is FREE to attend, but reserve your bandanas here to dye with two options during the event: local indigo dip or eco-print with local dye flowers.
We’re also having a FREE raffle for several vintage craft books.
Bring a friend and a project - we’ll be crafting together while our bandanas dry!

We are the Kaw Point Fibershed
A Fibershed affilate encompassing the 150 mile radius around Kaw Point in Kansas City.
The Kaw Point Fibershed is the connection point for shepherds, shearers, farmers, artisans, local retailers, natural dyers, mill owners, hand spinners, guilds, and others to come together within the 150 mile radius of the convergence of the Kansas and Missouri Rivers.
Our goal is to create a local Fibershed that is able to provide sustainable textile options for the community with a resilient local network of fiber producers, processors, and consumers.
We host and share events featuring local producers and products, have a directory for members to connect with each other and community members to use as a resource, share a monthly newsletter, and meet on the last Tuesday of every month.
