Workshop on the Cyanotype process hosted by Professor Eska Palmer

Join us for a hands-on workshop exploring the Cyanotype process, hosted by Professor Eska Palmer.

What to ExpectWe’ll provide all the materials you need, but we encourage you to bring along objects that hold personal meaning to incorporate into your design. Cyanotypes can be made with:

• Pressed objects under glass (flowers and plant life work beautifully)
• 3D objects
• Digital negatives (photographs)

Want to use your own photo?If you’d like to make a cyanotype from one of your photographs (cell phone images welcome), please email the image to by September 18 at 11:59 PM. Eska will convert it into a printed negative so it’s ready for use in the workshop.

Space is limited!This workshop caps at 20 participants, so reserve your spot early.

If you fall in love with the process, we’ll be offering a follow-up advanced Cyanotype workshop focused on stripping and toning techniques.

This workshop is part of the monthly arts initiative hosted by the Fabulous Arts Foundation in partnership with the Johnson Singer Arts Education Fund.

We welcome members of the LGBTQIA+ community, allies, and family members to join us in creating art with master instructors. All artwork created will be featured in the intergenerational exhibition “0–99: The Art of a Rainbow Life – Still Here, Still Becoming” at the Sarasota Art Museum in July 2025.

While each workshop will provide themes for inspiration, your creativity is never bound to them. This initiative is a space to come together, share stories, and explore the power of art.

Community Partners: Also Youth,. Senior Friendship Center, Project Pride SRQ, and many more.
