Workshops, Events, and Bookings
Through workshops and demonstrations, we foster learning and community engagement. We encourage visitors to participate in these events, creating a shared space of learning, healing, and growth.
Come learn about cyanotype printing with us this summer! Cyanotype is one of the oldest photographic printing processes. It is a form of sun-printing that involves laying an object on specially coated paper (prepped with iron salts), exposing it to UV light (the sun���), and then rinsing with water. It produces stunning white and cyan-blue printed images (the origins of the “blueprint”!)
Join us and delve into the history of cyanotypes and create some of your very own with plants from the historic gardens at Point Ellice House Museum. We’ll complete the process from start to finish with a hands-on demonstration, some design time with botanicals provided, and little time outside to expose your prints.
Dates: August Fri 1, Sat 2, Sun 3
Time: 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM
Location: Point Ellice House Museum & Gardens, 2616 Pleasant Street, Victoria, BC
Tickets are $60 per person.
