Please join us for this free Cyanotype workshop, sponsored by Savannah College of Art and Design!
Explore cyanotype, a historic photographic printing process developed in 1842 that uses light-sensitive chemistry and sunlight to create striking blue-and-white images. Originally embraced by botanists to document plants and algae, cyanotypes continue to inspire contemporary artists and photographers with their distinctive aesthetic and handcrafted nature. Participants will learn the basics of this fascinating process while creating their own cyanotype prints to take home.
Taught by Ashley Jones, this workshop is open to the public and for all skill levels! Limit of 20 participants, RSVP below!
