World Collage Day: Collage Party for Joyce Wieland

As part of World Collage Day, RAG presents a Collage Party for adults. It’s the perfect opportunity to get together with friends and make some art!
Using imagery inspired by the work of Canadian artist Joyce Wieland, participants are invited to cut and paste while you chat, listen to music, and experiment with simple art materials.
Inspired by the Hazel Meyer exhibition, The Marble in the Basement, the focus will be on the Canadian artist who inspired Meyer: Joyce Wieland.
Wieland (1930–1998) explored various materials and media as her art became assertively political, engaging with nationalism, feminism, and ecology. Using similar themes as a starting point, gallery staff will share images of Wieland’s works and demonstrate how to use cut and ripped posters, photographs, magazines, and various papers and fabrics to develop new collage artworks. Work on solo or collaborative collage pieces, or take a break for a quick casual tour of The Marble in the Basement.
All materials provided. Registration is required due to limited seating.
