Workshops
The guild sponsored a collage workshop Creating Collage with local writer/artist Donna Freckmann in October. This workshop went beyond collaging with simple papers and magazine photos. Students worked with unique, exotic and hand-dyed papers. Basic techniques were reviewed and students experienced dying their own paper. Several projects were completed using different collage techniques and slides were shown. All projects were selected with emphasis on calligraphic application.

Please keep an eye on the Calendar of Events for details on upcoming workshops.
