Rescheduled- Cyanotypes Event

Drop In and learn about cyanotypes and try making a few yourself with out special UV lamp. Cyanotypes are produced by coating either fabric or paper with a special mixture of chemicals and left to dry in a dark room. Once dry, all sorts of different objects can be arranged onto the fabric/paper and placed in the sun or under a UV lamp. Since we will be doing this at night, we will use some UV lights and a box to expose our cyanotypes. After exposing the paper/ fabric under UV light for a set amount of time, the paper/ fabric gets rinsed out, which will fix the print so it no longer exposes under UV light. Then you will have a blue and white print when finished. This event is open to patrons 13 years and older- children are welcome but need to be accompanied by an adult the whole time they are in the space. Registration is not required, but supplies are limited so stop in and try making a few of your own cyanotypes with Stephanie.
