TESTIMONIALS
A fascinating and enriching cultural experience. We learned a lot about the early history of photography and were able to tour the artist’s studio which was a treasure trove of memorabilia and original work. We learned how to do Cyanotype prints with mixed organic materials, and felt confident experimenting into some original forms of our own. I would highly recommend this!
