Collage & Chill Workshop
Sunday 9th October 2022
4:30 pm to 6:30 pm
3 Marine Court, Saint Leonards-on-sea TN38 0DX
Creative workshop for Black and People of Colour aged 14-18
Come and Chill at Afri-Co-Lab, while we dig into the heated phrase “Playing The Race Card” using collage.
Led by the Afri-Co-Lab team and Playing The Race Card Exhibition Director Claudine Eccleston, we will explore how 25 UK Black artists have creatively responded to this contested statement.
Doesn't matter if art is not your thing, perhaps you want to try something different or meet new people. Collage & Chill is all about the banter, sharing thoughts and trying something new...
Your pace!
