About the Event
We take on today’s world issues including climate, migration and inequality. Rip up the headlines and rebuild them into unapologetic statements. In the process, find connection with others, turning scraps into both protest and solidarity.
Rip It Up: A Collage Workshop Series
Four standalone workshops. Come to one, come to all. Each is about making, talking, and being together. Art as community, craft as resistance, creativity as care.
Collage is not polite. It rips, cuts and pastes the world back together on its own terms. From Dada troublemakers to feminist zines and protest posters, it has always been art that bites back. Across this series we explore solidarity, resistance and self-expression. Together we cut, layer and reimagine, turning scraps into a chorus of collective voices.
No training. No rules. Just scissors, glue and the courage to speak through making.
