'Swirling' into community action with guitar hydro dipping


During a week-long workshop a non-profit markerspace offers a variety of opportunities for guitar enthusiasts including hydro dipping on June 25 in Houston, TX.

Hydro dipping is a system for dying materials and is widely used in guitar engineering to create a beautiful and unique finish.

Levi Southerlan, 32, is shown dipping a guitar into the colorful mix, after he pulls it out it resembles a "shamrock shake," says Donnie O'Neil.

TXRX Labs is an essential space for guitar builders and enthusiasts. The non-profit offers classes, youth programs, job training, and memberships. Classes will begin this fall.
