Human Spectrum: A Collage-Making Workshop

Join us for a reflective 2-hour collage session exploring a simple question: What makes you feel human?

Together, we'll create personal collages that capture the messy, imperfect, beautiful parts of being human: the emotions, experiences, mistakes, and moments that remind us we're alive. Using magazines, images, words, and mixed materials, you'll have space to explore what humanity means to you.

This is a gentle, creative space, no experience necessary. Whether you're drawn to color, texture, words, or abstract shapes, there's no right or wrong way to make a collage. We'll provide magazines, paper, glue, and other basic art materials, but you're welcome to bring your own supplies if you'd like to work with something specific.

Your host, Ece, is a craft art enthusiast, hobbyist collage maker, community builder, and facilitator. She'll share some of her own collages for inspiration and will be available throughout the session to answer questions, offer gentle prompts, and support your creative process. Though she's not claiming to be a professional collage artist, just someone who loves making things and holding space for others to do the same.
