The Mixed Media Collage Workshop is a powerful creative experience focused on self-expression, storytelling, and visual exploration. In this class, each participant creates one one-of-a-kind collage artwork, combining multiple materials and techniques to bring a personal vision to life.
This workshop encourages intuitive creation and experimentation. You’ll work with a rich selection of mixed media elements — layering textures, imagery, and color to build depth, contrast, and meaning. There are no rules or templates, only guidance to help you translate ideas, emotions, or stories into a cohesive visual statement.
No prior experience is needed. The class is welcoming for beginners while offering expansive creative freedom for more experienced artists.
Everything is included — from all creative materials and professional guidance to light snacks and drinks — so you can fully immerse yourself in the process.
