About this Event

This event allows teens to unleash their creativity while learning about Romare Bearden, a master of collage and visual storytelling. Inspired by his innovative use of mixed media, you will create your collages using personal memories, cultural themes, and bold imagery—just as Bearden did.

Discover how African American history, literature, jazz, and global artistic traditions influenced Bearden's art. Encourage your self-expression while celebrating the rich artistic legacy of the Harlem Renaissance.

No prior art experience is needed—just a passion for creativity and culture!
