Creative Aging: Poetic Collage
This poetry in visual forms workshop approaches language as a tangible entity and the image as literal and figurative word. We will explore the intersection of the drawn, written, & spoken line, considering public space, placement, and design.
For the workshop we suggest you might like to gather recycled materials like newspapers, magazines with both text and images. They can be in color or black/white and in any language. Also if you can bring photos, travel notes and travel logs, maps, and mementos with text like from weddings, graduations, honorings, home goings, ceremonies, tributes, letters and antique postcards, stamps, etc.
Supplies will be provided.
Registration required. To register please visit Spring Creek Library or call 718.257.6571.
