The Joyful Art of Collage
Explore collage as the vibrant, legitimate fine art form it truly is—in this hands-on, inspiring workshop brought to you by Over Here Community Arts Adventure!
This class goes far beyond paper and glue. Guided by the work of historical and contemporary collage artists, you'll discover how this expressive medium has shaped—and continues to shape—the fine art world.

No matter your experience level, you'll leave with fresh skills, a deeper appreciation for collage as an art form, and a piece you're genuinely proud of. Bring your curiosity, your creativity, and an open mind—and get ready to experience the joyful art of collage!
