Community Gatherings, a unique 2-hour in-person collage workshop series that nurtures the inner child. Participants use childhood photos and nostalgic materials to create personal collages and share stories within an intimate setting. Each person creates their own "inner child" collage and leaves with a shared creative experience - fulfilling a childhood dream of creating with friends and cultivating safe spaces for collective healing and communal exchanges that shift cultural norms.
Supplies and refreshments included, courtesy of Good Hart Artist Residency.
NOTE: Participants will need email 3-5 childhood photos directly to Sasha in advance (photos due by March 11). Sasha will edit/ remove backgrounds & print them for you to use at the workshop.
