Rockland, ME, July 27, 2018 The Center for Maine Contemporary Art (CMCA) invites artists of all ages to try an experimental twist to photo-making during August’s ArtLab of All Ages on Saturday, August 4, from 2 to 4pm. ArtLab for All Ages takes place on the first Saturday of every month and is always free and open to all.

Participants in August’s workshop will explore the medium of cyanotypes, also known as sun prints, using collage-able digital negatives and photograms. Bring your own objects—things from nature or anything relatively small and meaningful—and arrange them on top of light-sensitive papers of all sizes to create a collection of prints. After the workshop, stop in the galleries to see the work of artists Jocelyn Lee, John Bisbee, and Tom Burckhardt.

ArtLab is supported in part by the Milton and Sally Avery Art Foundation, Davis Family Foundation, Cricket Foundation, and individual donors.
