Making art can be a wonderful form of escape from everyday life. It can also be a useful tool in understanding current events as they unfold. Work with newspapers and magazines to create a visual representation of the news through collage. Research, drawing, and mixed-media techniques spark ideas, which ultimately result in uniquely personal collage artwork.

The instructor, a London-based artist, introduces students to her work and to that of other artists working in newspaper collage. No previous art experience needed. All levels are welcome.
