About this Event
The Association for Public Art (aPA) in partnership with the Parkway Central Library presents a hands-on workshop that explores the collage medium as a response and in dialogue with artist Nicolo Gentile’s public artwork , commissioned for aPA’s 2025 Art on the Parkway program and currently on view at Maja Park at 22nd Street and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway through October 26, 2025. Facilitated by Collage Philadelphia, participants will delve into the art of cutting and reassembling printed historic images and newspaper headlines. By the end of the workshop, participants will have built their own narratives around public spaces as sites of civic gathering, drawing inspiration from Bar None’s homage to the layered legacy of protest and public assembly that defines the iconic Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia. This workshop will take place over two hours.
Maximum capacity is 30 participants, so please register in advance.
