About this Event
Come create beautiful, tactile art by blending two gorgeous handmade techniques: paper collage and hand embroidery.
In this joyful, hands-on workshop you’ll cut, tear, and layer vintage papers, textured scraps, and images to build rich, personal collages, you’ll then bring them to life with needle and thread — adding delicate stitches, bold embroidery details, and playful texture that makes your piece pop off the page.
