**Available to Gr. 4+**

Bring your own T-Shirt! White T's work best, however a light color would still work (just keep in mind the dye might show up different on a yellow shirt versus a white shirt, for example). For this project, patrons should not feel they have to purchase anything. I recommend using an old white t-shirt, a camp t-shirt, etc.
