Celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival—also known as the Mooncake Festival or Moon Festival—with a hands-on lantern-making workshop at Objectifs – Centre for Photography and Film in Singapore. This family-friendly art session puts a creative twist on traditional celebrations by combining lantern crafting with the magical cyanotype printing process, a historical photographic technique that creates beautiful blue-and-white prints using sunlight.
Workshop highlights:
- Create personalised lanterns using cyanotype, a UV light-sensitive technique perfect for unique artistic expression
- Design prints with natural materials and everyday objects before transforming them into glowing paper lanterns
- Join an evening lantern walk around Objectifs and showcase your handmade creation in a festive group activity
- Learn about the cultural meaning behind the Mid-Autumn Festival, including themes of reunion, gratitude, and reflection
- Ideal for families, kids (ages 10+), and creative adults—no prior art or photography experience needed
Enjoy a meaningful and fun-filled celebration that blends heritage, creativity, and community spirit under the full moon. This is a perfect Mid-Autumn Festival activity in Singapore for those looking to make memories and handmade art with loved ones. All materials are provided.
