Cyanotype Introduction

🕚 Time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
📍 Location: Sunshine Festival Workshop Space

Step into the magic of sun-powered image-making with “Cyanotype Introduction,” a hands-on workshop led by Questa-based interdisciplinary artist Claire Cote. Claire brings over two decades of experience in community-rooted arts and creative placemaking, and her approachable teaching style makes this session perfect for first-timers and curious creators alike.

In this gentle introduction, participants will explore the fundamentals of cyanotype—a historic photographic printing process that harnesses UV light to create beautiful, blue-toned images. You’ll learn how to coat paper, arrange natural materials, and develop your prints using sunlight and water. This one-hour session is a relaxing, immersive way to reconnect with nature, creativity, and the land itself.

All materials are provided. Just bring your curiosity—and maybe a favorite small object or leaf to include in your design.
