The Nettle Dress – A Film Screening

Friday, January 30 | doors open at 5pm

Join us at the Porcupine Theater for an evening to honor Nettle and all it makes possible with a screening of beautiful documentary “The Nettle Dress”!

Textile artist Allan Brown spends seven years making a dress by hand from foraged stinging nettles, all picked on the South Downs near Brighton. This is ‘hedgerow couture’, the greenest of slow fashion. It’s also his medicine, the way he survives the death of his wife that left him and his four children bereft.

Doors open at 5:00, Carla Klinker discusses working with nettle fibers at 5:30 and movie begins at 5:45. Free to Porcupine members.
