Whether using paper or fabric, collage has long been practiced by women, people of color, and those without access to a formal art education. In this 4-week class students will examine the history of collage as an outsider art – how women and people of color used material at hand (paper and fabric scraps, for example) to create visual expressions that resonate powerfully today. Students will be asked to channel the spirit of these artists (many of whom remain unidentified) in creating their own works of art from the materials of daily life. The instructor will bring her expertise in history and collage to aid students in their exploration of this vibrant and accessible art form.

*Students will purchase their own materials and should expect to spend $40-60.
