Painting with Paper: Collage Workshop

Learn how to use modern collaging techniques to make a unique art piece. Guests will use a flower bouquet template to create their own collage. Instructor Ariana R-G will guide you through her unique approach of building a collage composition using magazine clippings, card stock, and paint pens.

During the workshop, we'll discuss color, texture, and depth.

Whether it's your first time collaging or you’re a pro, this workshop will have you looking at magazines in a new way.

All materials will be provided.
