Unleash Your Creativity: Vive Handmade Open Studio

  • Long Island City, NY (map)

Join us for an epic afternoon of experimenting with color and pattern at Vive Handmade’s studio as we create a collaborative textile piece.

In a fun, judgment-free, there-are-no-mistakes environment, you will learn several textile techniques including painting, printing, stamping, and more. We'll be working with non-toxic water-based textile inks that can be applied in many ways.

Let your imagination fly as we create something magical together as a community. Bring a friend and make new friends! Beginners, experienced artists, and dreamers are welcome. 

Get an inside look at Vive Handmade and the collection of hand-dyed and printed scarves, pillows, and accessories. The studio is a playground of color, come experience the possibilities.

Note: Please wear clothing that you don't mind getting a little paint on! These colors are permanent on fabric.

Vive Handmade is created out of a deep connection to the energetic aspects of color and its ability to uplift and inspire us.

Working with water-based dyes on natural fabrics is endlessly interesting, improvisational and alive. Fiber, dye and water molecules meet in a spontaneous dance and colors emerge, merge and blend in exciting, serendipitous ways. There is an invitation to become a co-creator as intentional craft processes are applied to the alchemy of dye meeting cloth.
