About this Event
Did you know that September 28th is World Cyanotype Day? Try your hand at this early form of photography with teaching artist Yu Rong! Use paper shapes, leaves, and more to compose your design. Then, let it soak up the sun! While you wait for the big reveal, learn more about the 180-year-old history of cyanotypes, or explore the photographs on view in the museum.
Paint, build, craft, and collage with us! Inspired by the museum’s exhibitions and local artists, MOCACREATE explores different themes every month. MOCACREATE workshops are designed with families in mind, but all are welcome!
FREE! RSVP optional, but appreciated.
