Cyanotype with Professor Eska Palmer : Workshop for LGBTQIA+ YOUTH

Cyanotype Workshop with Professor Eska Palmer
Join us for a hands-on workshop exploring the Cyanotype process, hosted by Professor Eska Palmer.
What to Expect:
We’ll provide all the materials you need, but we encourage you to bring along objects that hold personal meaning to incorporate into your design. Cyanotypes can be made with:
Pressed objects under glass (flowers and plant life work beautifully)
Want to use a photograph you took?
If you’d like to make a cyanotype from one of your photographs (cell phone images welcome), please email the image to [email protected] by June 10th at 11:59 PM. Eska will convert it into a printed digital negative so it’s ready for use in the workshop.
Space is limited!
This workshop caps at 25 participants, so reserve your spot early.
If you attended our Fall Cyanotype workshop and want to build on what you made- we will additionally be exploring the stripping and toning process. So feel free to bring what you made in Fall if you'd like to explore other colors or matte/satin/gloss finish.
This workshop is part of the monthly arts initiative hosted by the Fabulous Arts Foundation in partnership with the Johnson Singer Arts Education Fund.
We welcome members of the LGBTQIA+ community, allies, and family members to join us in creating art with master instructors. All artwork created will be featured in the intergenerational exhibition “0–99: The Art of a Rainbow Life – Still Here, Still Becoming” at the Sarasota Art Museum and the 925 Maddox Gallery & Studios in August 2026.
While each workshop will provide themes for inspiration, your creativity is never bound to them. This initiative is a space to come together, share stories, and explore the power of art.
Community Partners: Also Youth, Senior Friendship Center, Project Pride SRQ, Sarasota Art Museum and many more.
