About this event

2 hours

Together, we'll invite the magic of collage to channel directly from our hearts through our hands.

Create, cut and paste pieces with a myriad of materials—from contemporary to vintage, and everything in between!—to create memory. Craft a blessing, build a vision board or remix a love poem for things to come. The experience is the joy! Invite your curiosity out on date, or bring a kid, parent, partner or pal: collage is for everyone.

No experience is necessary and all supplies are provided.

Your host

Alanna Chelmick is a multi-disciplinary artist who creates with many mediums: paper, paint, makeup, textiles and the natural world. She is fuelled by nature and all its elements, animals on the ground to the sky, community care and connection. She finds joy in the smallest things and follows her intuition, moving around the world. Smiling at “strangers” is common. You will find her talking to birds, appreciating light and the way it dapples. Nearly thirty years ago, she was nicknamed Alanna of Love and it stuck. #whatwouldlovedonow @alanna_of_love
