The gesture & the shout: community printing, collage, design

Jue Jul 2
2:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Tired of endless scrolling and digital noise? This workshop will help bring our message out of the digital ether and into the public sphere. The workshop will remind us that in a scattered world with distant posts, there's a lot of power in a real, shared action. We'll explore how to reclaim our public spaces and connect with each other through tangible art.

In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn the basics of wheatpasting, collage and design. We'll create our own images, designs and messages and put them directly on the street. It's a chance to turn ideas into a collective act of presence. Come join us, make something real, and find your voice in the physical world.

Please bring anything you would like to use on your collages like magazines and drawings, as well as your laptop or pendrive with some of your designs or sketches with your ideas – preferably black and white. For ages 14 and up. 

Presented by Marcelo Fontana and Lucas Peixe in conjunction with the Collins Gallery exhibit, Invite Hope: Marcelo Fontana + Wave Contemporary.
