World Collage Day is just around the corner, falling on Saturday, May 13 this year. I usually celebrate it by organizing a community collage creation. Last year’s Avondale’s community collage, with the kind support of Whau the People, is proudly displayed at the Avondale Library, while the Titirangi community collage from two years ago is on exhibit at the Titirangi Community House. This year, since World Collage Day coincides with Mother’s Day weekend, I am thrilled to collaborate with Upstairs Gallery at Lopdell House, offering a free event: “Collage Your Mother’s Day Card.”
Mothers hold a special place in our hearts, and what better way to show appreciation than by gifting a unique, handmade card?
All are welcome to join us any time between 2 and 4 pm. We will provide all materials needed to create a personalized card from upcycled magazines and books onto coloured bristol cards. Additionally, you are welcome to bring your own images from home to add a personal touch. No need to sign up; see you there!
