COLLAGE NIGHT FOR CREATIVES
ABOUT
Collage Night is a fluid yet focused time to express your self through the visual medium of collage. Because the intention of the experience is to play, your host offers limited guidance but does work to ensure that you have everything you need to create a beautiful piece of art, including light snacks (because you can't craft while hungry!)
ACCESSIBILITY
The Gathering does have one small step upon entry. The space has a gender-neutral bathroom. Plenty of seating is available.
FAQ
Q: What if I can't make it, do you accept refunds?
A: No, we don't accept refunds/reschedules at this time
Q: Can I bring my own books?
A: Absolutely! If you have books/magazines at home that you'd like to use you're welcome to bring them! We are accepting donations of books in limited quantities.
Q: Do I get to keep the piece that I make?
A: Yes! It is yours to keep :)
Q: Do I get to take extra collage materials home with me after the session?
A: No, we ask that you do not take extra collage images home.
Q: What if I hit a creative block and need some help?
A: No problem! Michaela is available to chat and would be happy to offer guidance, as needed.
