Photography is so much more than a quick phone snap; the hands-on experience of analog processes are undeniably fascinating. Here is your opportunity to get a glimpse into the world of darkroom film photography and alternative processes.
Take advantage of the summer sun to make beautiful cyanotypes on paper! One of the oldest photographic techniques, cyanotypes involve coating paper with a light-sensitive emulsion and laying objects or transparencies on the paper, then exposing them using the sun. After a water rinse, cyanotypes develop into a deep blue and white print.
All supplies will be provided.
