Try something new! The Monthly Make with Patrice Lorenz offers an exciting variety of workshops where folks can explore creative processes new to them.
Collage – Just Add Glue!
Begin by cutting, tearing, folding, crumpling and generally exploring the properties of a variety of papers to prepare for making a collage. The art of collage is a fun way to build small motor skills. It also supports building vocabulary that enables artists of all ages to make and articulate choices based on color, shape, patterns and textures. A collage can take any form. It can be a three dimensional paper sculpture or a piece to hang on your wall. Surprise yourselves by releasing your untapped creativity and make a collage!
