July 14 Meaning Making with Collage Instructed by Ann E. Lawton

$150.00

We often put aside and neglect our creative desires and reflection of ourselves in our fast-paced, grind culture-influenced lives. This workshop aims to provide participants with an invitation to connect to their creativity and meaning making through the process and application of collage. Using simple materials and tools, we’ll explore how the simple act of sifting, sorting, cutting, and arranging paper ephemera offers a sanctuary of rest, reflection, and a catalyst for self-discovery.

Collage is a versatile application with found materials and paper items; no drawing or other art skills are required to engage in this transformative art-making process. This workshop will explore technique and composition basics and a variety of guided reflective experiences for participants to trust the creative process and cultivate personal meaning through their creative process from start to finish.
