Vintage Collage Art Workshop (London)

Love anything vintage, retro & recycled? Want to get creative and learn how to make an incredible piece of collage art by using old paper materials? If the answer is yes, join me for a 2.5 hour masterclass in making your own vintage collage!

You’ll be shown how to:

• Work with different old paper materials such as vintage books, magazines, postcards etc. (There will be all sorts of themes such as old national geographics, childrens comics, fashion magazines, kitschy cook books and so on.)
• How to make an image selection for your own piece
• How to construct a collage so it becomes one cohesive piece of art
• Different layering techniques and collage tips
• optional: how to spice it up with glitters!

What exactly will we do?

We'll be making a piece of art from papers - maybe you want to keep it yourself, maybe you're making it for a lovely friend or family member. You can bring your personal pictures if you'd like to include these in your piece!

What's included?

• 2.5 hours of tips & tricks, guidance with sourcing images, cutting, puzzle'ing and creating your artwork
• All the available vintage paper materials for you to make your collage with
• You'll get a white picture mount to frame your artwork and take it home in! (pick between A3 and A4)
• Coffee or tea, water and snacks!
• A take home collage flyer full of tips & tricks

Location

The workshop is at - just minutes from the Thames, a lovely Central London location that is peaceful though around the corner of the buzzing Borough Market! The venue allows BYOB which means you can bring your own drinks/food if you'd like to.

Please bring a bag with you that can hold an A3 size artwork! (any tote bag or supermarket plastic bag would work).
