Carol Esch will guide participants through the process of making cyanotypes.  Cyanotypes require natural sunlight to develop, so while your cyanotypes are soaking up the sun (and we have a backup date in case of no sun), artist Molly Brusser will talk about going from the corporate world to the art world in the wake of the pandemic. Molly is interested in “what is important to us and why we make art.” Complimentary Bevs + Bites provided by Chef Becky Geisel. Please RSVP to inquiries@bexkitchen.com
