Resist: Tie Dye Practices from Around the World
February 13-July 30, 2024

Scholars believe that these practices may have developed independently in cultures across the world. Join the Avenir Museum at Colorado State University as they tie together diverse practices of tie dye from Japan, Indonesia, India, Uzbekistan, Nigeria, Guatemala, and Peru, amongst others.
