Feeling Artistic?

Collage is defined as a technique of composing a work of art by pasting on a single surface various materials not normally associated with one another, as newspaper clippings, parts of photographs, theater tickets, and fragments of an envelope.

Begin clipping now so you have the materials you need!  Bring buttons, sequins, feathers, tissue, anything you want to accent your collage.  Glue, adhesive, or pins are encouraged.

Bring posterboard, cardboard, paper, or anything else you want to use.  Try to find a frame for your art so you will enjoy it at home! Virtually anything can be collaged--a shoebox, the cover of a book, a picture frame, a wall. Go to a local craft store and purchase wooden picture frames, magazine racks, desk organizers and keepsake boxes for a couple of bucks and collage them.  

If you find a good deal on supplies and plan to bring something to share, please make a note.next to your name. I will supply ModPodge. Bring a cardboard box, etc to help get your art home.

We`ll share snacks and chit chat while creating works of Motivational or Memory Art for your home! Are you losing weight, beginning a new lifestyle, developing a skill in any sport, gardening, or career? Any subject works!

You may also bring photographs to create a special memory collage. Do you want to create art from pictures of a favorite CHOA event? Your father's last birthday? Your children on the playground? A best friend you never want to forget?
