In a world that is often chaotic and overwhelming, small acts of slowing down are increasingly essential for emotional and physical wellbeing. In this experiential, process-oriented workshop, we will explore how the modality of collage, incorporated within a circular framework, can be utilized as a tool for attunement, centering, and contemplation. Drawing upon her training in Art Therapy, artist Ashley Blanton will guide participants through a mindful approach to collage that can be integrated into a variety of creative practices.

Suggested materials:

1. Blank paper of your choosing. You may like to have both smaller and larger sizes of paper available to use.

2. Collage materials. This could include, but is not limited to: magazines, decorative papers, colored tissue paper, photographs, book pages, old artworks that you're willing to cut up and repurpose.

3. A drawing compass or circular objects such as bowls, plates, lids, etc. to use to trace the outline of a circle. You may like to have different sized circles on hand to experiment with smaller and larger formats.

4. A pencil and eraser

5. An x-acto knife or scissors

6. Glue

You will receive access to the workshop in a separate email the day the class starts. All workshops are recorded and the replay will be available after the class ends.
