In September, the Champaign County Library will host a dynamic series of eight cyanotype workshops for those 50 years and better led by local artist Suzi Hyden. Participants are expected to attend all sessions as each session will build upon each other. In October we will host a reception for the community showcasing the artwork created by participants. Workshop Dates: September 6, 7, 13, 14, 20, 21, 27, and 28, from 1:30 - 3:00 PM Exhibition: October 12, 2024 Registration is required as space is limited. Visit the library’s online event calendar to register or speak to library staff for assistance. No experience is necessary. Participants will learn the history of the cyanotype process, how to create cyanotype prints using everyday objects, practice arranging objects to create eye-catching prints and learn advance methods such as adding color and enhancing prints with drawing and painting. A variety of papers and fabrics will be used including materials from home to create personal prints.

She uses native wildflowers and other objects she finds in nature to create cyanotypes, an alternative photographic process that is also known as sun printing or blueprinting. In addition, she shows her love for nature by repurposing materials for her art. She often uses vintage fabrics, papers, and metal as the substrates and framing for her cyanotypes. champaigncountylibrary.org
