Are you college-curious? Join us for an exciting Collage Explorations workshop with Peggy Pfenninger and discover how to ignite your creativity using just paper and glue, all within a relaxed and playful setting. In this hands-on session, you’ll dive into the art of ephemeral collages—no glue required!—while mastering some basic techniques and crafting a funky face.
For the main project, you’ll create a free-flowing collage background that captures your unique style. Peggy will then guide you through transforming your artistic creation into a zine, allowing you to showcase your work in a playful format that can be used as a mini book, journal, or card.
Perfect for all skill levels and ages 15+, this workshop promises a fun and creative experience. No prior experience is necessary, and all supplies are included. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the art of collage and create something uniquely yours!
This event is FREE with registration. Donations are encouraged for those who can afford them, to support Siren Nation's nonprofit mission.
