Summer Cyanotype Workshop

Summer Cyanotype Workshop In-Person

Join local photographer and artist Edie Bresler for a fun hands-on workshop on cyanotype, a method of photography that uses the sun to develop prints! Participants will learn all about the process and techniques used in this photography method and create their own small cyanotype print with natural objects.

This event will take place outside of the Main Library in Joan Lorentz Park, in the shade and in direct sunlight. Please plan accordingly.

Note: If rain or heavy clouds affect our ability to make prints outside, we will offer this workshop inside in the Community Room with artificial light sources.

 

About the artist:
