Join us Sunday afternoon at Photoworks to create your own cyanotype print. Mac Cosgrove-Davies, a Photoworks instructor and one of the exhibiting photographers in our 2024 show, will share all about the process and provide special hand-coated paper for you to use. Various objects will be provided, and you can even bring your own medium or large format negatives to try out. We’ll be there from 2-5 p.m. You can drop by, create a print, and explore the grounds while it dries. The event is free and family friendly; hope to see you there!
