About Collages for a Time of Transition with Gwen Shandroski
Retired folks, city transplants, laid off workers are all looking for their next gig. Should they pursue banjo playing or photography? If not taking refuge in a warmer American clime, “what am I going to do to get through a Canadian winter?” could be on their mind. Collage is a very accessible creative endeavour. There is no pressure to draw images. Pick images, draw lines and glue – that’s it.
Gwen saw an ad that said “art school mentality – no marks.” That’s it. Just put images beside each other and see if they “go together.” It could be dissonance that you are representing, harmony or even uncertainty. Collage is a form of play, trial and error.
All are invited. Bring your own images – match books you’ve collected, old photos, postcards, mag pics that you just love, old newspaper announcements, found objects, etc. A bin of images will be provided if you don’t have your own. You will walk away creating a collage that “says something” to you and maybe gives you some insight for the road ahead.
Age range – 18+
Thursday, April 30, 2026 from 10 AM-12 PM at the County Arts Lab, Unit 2E, Picton Armoury Building. Sliding scale pricing.
