Image Par Image Collage Workshop

October 6 @ 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Join artist Natasha Guy for a workshop that will use collage as a way to explore historical images.

2026 marks not just the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, but also the 200th anniversary of photography. In honor of these celebrations, participants will use historical images from the Print and Picture Collection to compose a collage and discuss what they’ve made as a group, exploring topics like how a city pictures itself, how photographs build collective memory, and the ways that history can be reopened through collage. The workshop will be held in the Art Department at Parkway Central Library and will run from 5 pm to 7:30 pm. No experience is needed and all materials will be provided.
