**Back by popular demand, on Friday 27th March we’re excited to be hosting our latest Drink & Do Night!** But for this one - instead of our usual paint and pottery, we’ll be teaming up with Something Good Workshops for a **Mixed Media Cyanotype Workshop,** exclusively for our community 🎨 If you’ve never tried cyanotype before, it’s a famous print making technique that creates distinctive deep blue artworks that you may have seen in galleries or design markets. The evening will start with a relaxed introduction where the workshop team will walk us through the process and materials. You’ll then design your own A6 artwork using a mix of bold materials like plants, tape, drawings and lettering, layering everything onto acetate to build your composition **🌿** Once you're happy with your design, they'll then place your image onto light-sensitive paper and expose it using specialist lighting, to reveal your finished cyanotype artwork. It should be a fun new experience and throughout the evening - there will be a bar open, so you can grab drinks and build some new connections - as you create your piece. Best of all, whilst art workshops like this can often cost £40+, this **whole evening of creative fun is just £13.25pp 💙** But as always - spots are limited and so do nab your spot, if you're keen to join us for this! **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **WHERE/WHEN** The Venue: Something Good Workshops, Deptford Market Yard, 2 Carriage Way.
