Wed, Oct 16 2024
1:30 pm – 3:00 pm
Bay Ridge Library, Meeting Room

arts and crafts creative aging

This is an interactive text and image collaging workshop series featuring poems, stories, and photos about the history of photo-poetry and its unique power to ignite the imagination. We will employ pictures taken by participants and historical photographs as we write, creating works that fuse language with images so that reading and viewing our new creations becomes an interwoven Collage experience. Our photo-poetry will allow the reader/viewer to find meaning from text and image together, beyond what is found in each form individually. 

No Experience Necessary. Supplies will be provided.

Registration Required. For more information, please call 718.748.5709.

Wednesdays from 1:30pm to 3:00pm
October 9th to December 11th, 2024
Culminating Event: December 18th, 2024
(No sessions October 30th & November 27th)

Provided through Services for Older Adults.
