Painting with Plants! 
Presented by Brooklyn Botanical Garden
Monday, July 6, 2026 
From 1pm to 2pm

Beet roots, turmeric stems and marigold petals have been used for thousands of years 
to create dye for clothing, paint, ink and more. 
Join our friends at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden to design your own one-of-a-kind fan 
with plant 'paint.'
