Oh! You Pretty Torn Thing: ATYN's Christmas Collage Mash-Up

Saturday 13th December · 4:30–6:30pm · Grand Hall
£15 Early Bird · £18 from December

Get ready to sprinkle, snip, tear, glue and generally misbehave with paper — because this is not your average collage class...
This is ATYN x HOT x Glasgow Collage Club, and peeps… it’s going to be exeptional.

Driven by 80s music, fuelled by glitter, carried by live music, and sprinkled with festive mischief, this session is all about play, colour, a little nudity, and of course the joy of making something gloriously unexpected.

You’ll get:

🎄 2 or 3 life models styled for a festive mash-up worthy of a record cover
🎄 A nice spread of collage materials (plus bring your own oddities if you’re that way inclined)
🎄 Live music accompaniment to keep you in a cosmic, cut-and-paste flow
🎄 A look at Glasgow Collage Club’s exhibition wall, celebrating Sophie and the devoted crew who sell out her HOT sessions every month

Unlike our sculpture event, this one is pure maximalist magic: think ripping paper with enthusiasm, layering textures, experimenting wildly, and letting instinct lead. It’s messy in the best possible way — a creative brain-holiday right in the middle of December madness.

Whether you collage weekly or haven’t touched a glue stick since 1998, we know you’ll have a blast. Come unwind, experiment, laugh, and leave with a handful of your own brilliantly bonkers creations to frame, gift, or proudly stick on the fridge.

And make a whole afternoon of it: explore the ATYN Exhibition, browse the stalls at the Christmas Fayre, grab a drink, soak up the atmosphere… then head into the Grand Hall for two hours of cut-up, cut-loose festive joy.

35 spaces. Loads of magazines.
One glorious glue storm.

Come collage with us, you pretty thangs.
