The Colour4CRAFTS project will mark the one-year milestone of the project by hosting a hybrid seminar on “Stretching for Colour”. The seminar features members of the project sharing research perspectives and discussing the ways in which the research facilitates “Stretching for Colour” through: the knowledge transfer of colour and skill of colouring from past traditions to the future; fostering European cultural heritage; creating opportunities for education to support traditional craft skills and their transformation into 21st century practices; combining traditional knowledge and cutting edge technologies to create innovative processes for the future’s green textile industries; and providing future visions for colouration and textile production in Europe.
