Design and patterns are created on fabrics with dyes. This is a simple and effective introduction to our arts that provides colourful fabric pictures that children can treasure. Children are given the opportunity to work with us to design their patterns to be created on fabrics with dyes.
The workshop allows the pupils to be familiarized with African tie and dye making. This activities involve total attention and dedication from the pupils. Our simple and yet unique techniques of teaching will help the pupils to quickly assimilate the knowledge being passed to them.

We had a great laugh doing the dancing. We had to do crazy dances but we enjoyed it. At the end we had made up a routine. The men at the front were drumming and one was tapping a bell to us. When we did it on our own I think it went well.
