02/08/2024 6:30pm 02/08/2024 8:00pm Collage Workshop Dust off your cutting and gluing skills! Drop in anytime from 6:30-8pm and use your creativity to turn scraps of paper into a work of art. Make something fun, serious, personal, or silly to hang on your fridge, or craft a ♥valentine♥ or anti-valentine to give away next week. Materials will be provided (including a few romance novels we saved from the trash!), but you're welcome to bring your own old magazines, photos, and other found papers. Since it's in the Digital Media Lab, you'll have the option to scan treasured photos or other items you don't want to damage, edit them in Photoshop if desired, and print the results for free to become part of your collage. You may also want to scan your finished product to share it online. Bonus: we'll have gold-colored embossing powder, an embossing marker, and basic stamps on hand to add some sparkle to your artwork. If you've never done that, we'll show you how! Age group: Adults and teens Instructors: Stacey and Charlie P Registration is optional, if you'd like to get an email reminder. See you there!
