A summary
Magic Sun Prints: Cyanotype Workshop for Creative young people as part of the HAF programme!
Unleash your child’s inner artist and scientist in this hands-on, magical workshop where we use the power of the sun to create stunning, bright blue works of art!
Cyanotype is a 180-year-old photographic printing process that uses a special sun-sensitive solution and natural sunlight. No cameras, no darkrooms—just pure, messy, creative fun.
? What You Will Do:
Explore: We’ll start by exploring leaves, flowers, and interesting textured objects that we have collected, and pressed
Design & Compose: You will learn how to arrange their treasures, and how to create beautiful stencils and silhouettes.
Harness the Sun: Watch the magic happen live as the sunlight transforms the paper right before their eyes!
The Big Reveal: Wash the prints in water to reveal a gorgeous, deep Prussian blue masterpiece to take home and frame.

Cancellation policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.
My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
