SCAPE Public Art Cyanotype Workshop

Explore the captivating process of cyanotype printmaking with this hands-on workshop inspired by SCAPE legacy artwork, Treehouses for Swampdwellers, by Julia Morison. The workshop will start with a nature treasure hunt in the Botanic Gardens to collect printmaking material then back to the Maker Workshop to investigate different approaches to composition and create your own cyanotype print.
This activity is suited to all ages and caregivers are welcome to drop-off or stay.

Note: Cyanotype printmaking is weather dependent and an alternative art-making activity may be offered if it is an overcast or rainy day.
