Sun Print Science: Creating Art with UV Light

Sun Print Science: Creating Art with UV Light

Wednesday, August 13th, 4:00 p.m.

Discover how light and chemistry come together in this hands-on science program. Using UV-sensitive sun print paper, you’ll explore how ultraviolet rays interact with specially treated materials to create unique cyanotype-style artwork. Collect natural objects like leaves, flowers, or everyday items to design your prints, then harness the power of sunlight to bring your images to life. It’s a creative way to learn about solar energy, UV radiation, and light-sensitive reactions—all while making one-of-a-kind art.
