SOLD OUT - Seaweed Cyanotypes

Saturday, February 10th + 11th from 12-3pm, Cannon Beach

Come make your own seaweed cyanotypes! A cyanotype is a photographic blueprint made through a chemical reaction between UV light and chemically coated paper. Cyanotypes have been a form of scientific documentation for seaweed, terrestrial plants, and natural specimens since they were invented in the 1700s and were actually some of the original form of photographic printing. Come learn about the process and techniques to make cyanotypes using a collection of pressed seaweeds and PNW flora. Each student will get to make 4-5 prints!

Your hosts and teachers will be Sam Block, wood worker, photographer, and owner of Block Studio alongside Alanna Kieffer, marine biologist, educator, seaweed farmer, and owner of Shifting Tides. This workshop will be held at the Cannon Beach Chamber of Commerce building.

A huge thank you to the Cannon Beach Chamber of Commerce and Experience Cannon Beach for sponsoring this event.
