Explore an early photographic process and create your own wall-worthy works of art! Developed in the 19th century, this camera-less method was soon adopted by botanists to document plant specimens. Cyanotypes combine art and science to produce gorgeous, deep-blue and white prints. Our expert instructor will introduce the technique and answer questions as you experiment with a variety of interesting plant silhouettes and learn this accessible image-making technique. You will take home your creations and the knowledge and skills to continue making more! Registration includes Garden admission for the day—we encourage you to explore the Garden after class!
