Cut & Paste Collage Workshop: Make Your Own Valentine

Join us for a fun and creative collage workshop where you can make your very own Valentine's Day card! Did you know a Valentine can be for a friend, your boo, your dog, your favorite food, yourself, yourself 10 years ago, your mother, or a stranger!?!! Spend the afternoon slowing down and creating something with love and care. No experience necessary, just bring your imagination and enthusiasm! The event will be held at 2112 N 30th St, so mark your calendars and get ready for a crafty and heartfelt time. See you there!

Location: Hardy Coffee - 2112 N 30th St
What to bring: We will have all the supplies you need (think vintage hallmark!), but you can always bring something from home if you want to add an additional personalized touch - a love note, a recipe card, a receipt from your favorite coffee shop.

A note from the artist.
Hi! I'm so excited that you are interested in joining this collage workshop. I really am. I love gathering together in community, to create. In this fast paste... I mean paced... world, it is truly something special to sit down and use our hands to make something, together. No AI and no screens - just a practice of using your gut intuition to make decisions and get tactile. Cut and paste. No option for “edit-undo”. You’ll leave the class with a beautiful (and analog) piece of personal art. No experience? No problem - I’ll walk you through steps to create your unique piece. A professional? Wonderful! Step into a readied “studio”, and I’ll do the cleanup. It’s nice to be taken care of sometimes.

The vast majority of the materials from this workshop are sourced second-hand . I believe in using something old to create new - both as metaphor, and as an environmental tool to lessen our impact. Plus, you can’t replicate the patina of a vintage image. In a world that feels digitally-complex and fast-moving, some of the most meaningful time we can spend together is creating. A precious serotonin boost, a moment in community, and a space to have fun and reflect. Please reach out if you have any questions. I can't wait to meet you!"
