RAG Collage Club: October Session

Get together with friends and fellow creatives at our social Collage Club for adults—a relaxed, art-making evening where imagination and conversation meet.

This month’s prompt explores the theme of FAMILY, inspired by our current exhibition:

Reflect on family dynamics, ancestry, siblings, chosen family, and whatever “family” means to you. We’ll provide a wide variety of paper ephemera and 3D objects to help you create your own collage or assemblage. Feel free to bring family photos or mementos—we’ll have a photocopier available so originals can be preserved.

For those who want to explore 3D collage, your host will introduce basic assemblage and diorama techniques to help you build a mixed-media collage using photos, keepsakes, and text.

Enjoy a curated musical playlist featuring “family” songs from past and present to set the mood.

As always, we’ll share the latest collage call-outs from international groups like , , and more—so you can connect and share your work with the global collage community.

All levels of artistic skill are welcome! Limited spaces, registration is required.
Recommended for ages 16+

$5 per person includes all art supplies and use of our equipment.
Please note – no refunds. Funds raised go towards supporting this program.
