Blues of the Bottom: A Cyanotype Workshop remembering and reimagining University City

During this workshop led by visual artist Yannick Lowery, participants will learn about the rich community of Philadelphia’s Black Bottom before it was called University City. Based on interviews and a mix of archival and contemporary imagery developed with Writer's Room at Drexel , we will make blueprints (cyanotypes) to remember and imagine what this community was and what it may yet become.
