An introductory adult workshop in
collage technique and execution.
Beginning with a brief historic overview
participants may follow the same path as
such artists as Picasso and Braque and
either work on traditional canvases or
transform small pieces of furniture
(coffee or side tables, chests,
shelves), boxes, screens or other three
dimensional objects into works of
original art. Here is an innovative
inexpensive way to refurbish an eyesore
into a treasure to be displayed and
appreciated in one's home or office.

Instructor: Stephen Halpert
A fun filled beginner's experience! Kids
age seven and up will have the
opportunity to create their own original
collages drawn from recycled magazines,
calendars, old photographs, post cards,
greeting cards, snippets of cloth and
other paper and cardboard scraps, even
small everyday found objects like bottle
caps, beads, even small plastic toys,
polished stones, and colored glitter.
Led by award-winning artist Stephen
Halpert and beginning with a series of
easy exercises enabling them to learn
about color shape, and perspective, kids
will discover exciting new ways to
create pictures. Stephen will provide
glue sticks, heavy cardboard for layouts
and gluing, glossy Mod Podge for
finishing and sealing, and some old
magazines and paper for cutting; kids
are asked to bring to class their own
pair of scissors as well as whatever
recycled paper, photographs and assorted
small objects they wish to integrate
into their collages.
