Those participating in admitted student VIP days will have the opportunity to come to the MakerSpace and learn how to use our vinyl cutter to design and cut their own stickers/decals. If you're a current student, come introduce yourself, welcome them to our beautiful campus, and share some of your love for SMC with them!!
In this workshop we will take a walk of the SMC natural area together and make some beautiful cyanotype prints. Also called "sun painting", cyanotype is the “original” sun-printing process and one of the earliest photographic techniques. It was discovered in 1842 and came known for its ability to produce rich, Prussian blue monochromatic prints. It became popular well into the 20th century as an inexpensive method for reproducing photographs, documents, maps and plans (hence the enduring architectural term “blueprint”) and famously, for making impressions of biological specimens in the field (“photograms”).
