Grab and Go: Cyanotype Kit

Cyanotype is an early photographic printing process in which paper is coated with light-sensitive chemicals. When objects are placed on the paper and exposed to sunlight, a blue image forms. Rinsing the paper in water develops the print by washing away unexposed chemicals.

This grab and go kit contains pre-treated cyanotype paper, instructions and fun prompts. It will be available at the 8th floor reference desk for the month of August or while supplies last.
