September 07, 2012 The first Owensboro High School cyanotype to hit the line.
Students and assistants worked together to produce their first cyanotypes, also known as sun prints or blue prints. Julie White, Owensboro Fine Arts Fusionist, talks with students about the process.

The Botanical Garden is full of beautiful and fascinating plant life and sculpture too.
