About this Event

Teaching Artists: Mt. Plantry

Follow in the footsteps of an early Washington photographer, Titian Ramsay Peale, who captured Rock Creek Park in the 19th century. We'll shoot pinhole photographs of the mill and develop the film with a sustainable process using instant coffee. Then, we'll turn the negatives into salt prints using the same methods used by Peale over 150 years ago!

Rain date: Sunday, June 14
