Cyanotypes Workshop

Make magical art using the power of the sun!

Bring the whole family along to Beach Creative for a fun and welcoming series of cyanotype workshops with artist Emily Rose Parris from The Darkroom Creatives.

What is a cyanotype?
Cyanotype is one of the earliest forms of photography, known for its beautiful blue-and-white prints. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll place everyday objects like leaves, flowers, and shapes onto special light-sensitive paper. With a little sunshine and a splash of water, your designs will transform into stunning, one of a kind artworks.

Who is this workshop suited for?

Perfect for all ages, these relaxed sessions are a great way to get creative together, learn something new, and enjoy making art inspired by nature.

No experience needed – just bring your imagination!

What to bring
All materials are provided, but you’re very welcome to bring your own objects to make your artwork extra special. Ideas include:

  • Leaves
  • Small toys
  • Stencils
  • Simple shapes

Come along, get creative, and blend science and art together!
