Details:
Join us at the Museum for an Introduction to Cyanotypes – a camera-less photography workshop by photographer Emily Barresi.
When: Sunday, July 5, 2026
Time: 4-5 pm
Place: At the Museum, 2nd floor
Learn about one of the earliest forms of photography in this hands-on, nature-centered workshop. Emily Barresi will guide students through the unique camera-less process of Cyanotypes – which involves laying objects on paper coated with a solution before exposing it to UV light. Students will bring home 2-3 original artworks on paper; great for adults and children alike! The Museum will provide materials, though participants are welcome to bring any negatives or personal items they would like to create with during the course.
Program is free but registration is required. Please RSVP to Jessica: jnejame@fergusonmuseum.org.
