Journey to the past and "meet" Eliza Lucas Pinckney.  In 1739, when Eliza was just 17 years old, her experiments with indigo resulted in a very profitable industry for the colony of South Carolina.  Hear her unique story, learn how indigo dye was made, and make your own indigo tie-dye t-shirt to take home.  This family friendly educational experience is fun for all ages.
