Registration: Community Indigo Dye Circle Saturday, September 23, 2023 from 10-11:30am

Welcome! And thank you for signing up to a community dye circle celebrating Indigo and the “They Did Not Know We Were Seeds,” public art installation. Created by Tanya Nixon-Silberg and funded by Now and There,  this circle will be a time for reflection, celebration and art-making.

In respect to the history of indigo and the connections between our ancestral past and our lived past, we will be using material that celebrates Blackness. So, if you remember the smell of Blue Magic hair grease, sitting between the thighs of your momma, auntie, or Sister Peaches down the street, and the sound of barrettes snapping into place at the end of wash day, this Indigo dye circle is for you. This circle is open to all and the experiences and needs of Black womxn will be centered.

Created by Tanya Nixon-Silberg and funded by Now and There,  this circle will be a time for reflection, celebration and art-making.

The dye circle will be on Saturday September 23, 2023 from 10-11:30 am at the Parker Hill Branch of the Boston Public Library, 1497 Tremont Street in Boston, MA.

This circle is the next phase in the "They Did Not Know We Were Seeds" art installation. I opened the piece in June 2023, planted indigo and now we are on the cusp of celebrating the harvest! Come to make art and stay for the community. 

The dye circle will be filmed to document a year of community art-making, remembrance, resistance and  joy. I am so happy you are a part of this journey.

In community,
