Collage Workshop
Make your very own poster, gift tags or even holiday cards in our cozy collaging workshop. Join us on Thursday 27th for a social evening of cutting, sticking and collaging! Whether you consider yourself an experienced artist or not even creative, collaging is the perfect low-stakes and straightforward art technique to quickly create visually interesting and unique pieces – perfect for adding a personal touch to your gifting this holiday season. Not in the gifting mood? Make a surrealist or political collage poster inspired by collaging through art history.
The Workshop
After a very brief introductory presentation to the facilitator and art history of collaging, we’ll jump right into creating our very own collages – choose for yourself whether you’ll be making a collage poster piece, or if you’d prefer to make something more practical and seasonal by collaging gift tags or holiday cards. What will you choose? Materials are included; pens, collage materials, a selection of coloured papers, glue stickers, scissors etc – but feel free to bring along anything you’d like to include.
Your Facilitator
Artist, workshop facilitator and community organiser Hash (they/he) has spent the past 6 years exploring the intersection between art, community and political action. When they’re not creating political and queer art accessories for their brand Sofftpunk or hosting engaging art workshops and events at ILGA, they’re organising social good projects and community fundraisers.
Their philosophy sees engaging with art and reclaiming our creativity as just one vital step in reimagining a better future for all marginalised people, and their workshops aim to create a welcoming and inspiring space for each person to reconnect with their creative selves. Catch them here at ILGA every month, with a different intentional art workshop!
