Midlands Science Festival presents a Hands On Cyanotypes Workshop at Tullamore Library

Start: 14 Nov 2023 - 10:00 AM
End: 14 Nov 2023 - 1:00 PM

Tullamore Library is hosting a number of events for Science Week 2023 in association with the Midlands Science Festival. The Midlands Science Festival is an initiative of Midlands Science and is funded by Science Foundation Ireland through the Science Week 2023 Programme.

This event explores the world of cyanotypes, a fun and creative 3-hour workshop where you will be introduced to the incredible 19th century Cyanotype printing technique, a non-toxic alternative photo process that uses sunlight or UV light to produce distinct cyan blue images.

As well as going through the history of the cyanotype process, we will experiment printing different objects like glass, dried flowers, lace, negatives etc. Participants are encouraged to bring their own (small) objects with which they would like to experiment. All materials supplied and everyone will go home with a unique piece of art you have created!

10:00 – 13:00
Thursday, 14th November
