5pm – 7.30pm

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.

None. All materials will be provided for this workshop.
