Visual Poetry: word and image in collage and collaboration
• All ages welcome
• Saturday, July 11, 2-4pm
• $45. per person
• Pre-Registration Required
• Instructor: Laura Mullen
Explore the joyfully exciting act of marrying word and image: this Visual Poetry workshop will
expose participants to some inspiring models and open space to playfully surprise yourself where
meanings emerge unforced. Focused and fun experiments will include: collage, erasures,
typographic experiments and concrete poetry. Feel free to conjure new language onsite or bring
previous work which could use another approach—or both.
Materials: Bring an open mind as well as lots of paper (different sizes and textures), also: 1. A used
book you’d feel comfortable tearing apart or writing into & 2. Collage materials that have some
meaning to you (but aren’t too precious). VITA will have scissors and glue and markers,
but if you have any art supplies you’ve been longing to try out this is a great opportunity.
