Join us for a unique class in the cyanotype process. Cyanotype is both a printmaking process and the oldest photographic process. It was developed in the 1800's as a way to create multiple copies in an easy and cost-efficient way. Using UV light, you will create magical blue pieces of art!

In this workshop, students will learn the basics of the cyanotype process using botanical materials on a canvas tote bag.

  • Please bring $35 to pay instructor for supplies.
  • This workshop will take place outside if weather permits.
  • Please Note: This class is planned as an in person class and we expect that it will run the full semester in person. However, there is an ongoing need to adhere to guidance and safety practices in order to safely manage the COVID-19 situation. The guidelines from state government and public health authorities change as time progresses and the CAC may need to make adjustments accordingly. It is possible that this class will transition to an online format at some point during the semester. In this case, tuition refunds will not be issued unless the CAC is unable to provide the same number of class sessions as initially planned either in person or in a remote format.
