Solargraphy Workshop

  • Cranford Community Center, Arts & Crafts Room 220 Walnut Avenue Cranford, NJ, 07016 United States (map)

Solargraphy is an alternative way to create a pinhole photograph that allows you to capture the movement of the sun in the sky. It's one of the most magical and fun photography experiences you can have! This workshop will walk you through the step by step process of creating your own. It is a two part workshop that meets on May 13 and June 17 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. Participants should be able to attend both sessions. No experience necessary. All materials provided.

Part 1: Learn about the process, make a pinhole camera, and discuss techniques for creating your solargraph. You’ll then go home and install your camera.

Part 2: Join back together and learn how to process your exposed solargraphs through scanning. 

Registration is required and can be done online up to two weeks before the workshop date.

Made possible by funds from the Union County Office of Cultural & Heritage Affairs, a partner of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts.

Additional funds provided by the Friends of the Library.

The Cranford Community Darkroom is a partnership between the Cranford Public Library and the Cranford Community Center.
