This month’s Craft & Relax will be a daytime extravaganza as we learn about the science and art of cyanotypes.
 
Each patron will craft a collage onto paper that has been prepared with light sensitive chemicals. Collaborating with the sun*, our exposed paper will quickly be washed with water, halting the exposure and transforming our collages into deep blue hues with stark white imprints where items once laid. The possibilities are endless!

COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS

Have you ever considered how your interests and skills could inspire others?

Do you knit or sew? Are you an artist or musician? Do you know how to repair bicycles or use an electric drill?

Would you be willing to show a group of us how to start seeds, or teach us how to make sourdough bread?

Would you consider leading a writers workshop or a drum circle at the library? Are you a historian, a globetrotter, or a naturalist? Together we could organize an evening for you to do a presentation! The possibilities are endless!

Please, let us know if you are willing to inspire, entertain, or teach our community at the Wayland Free Library!
