Virtual Collage Jam is on Summer Vacation - Back September 26!

I started my FREE Virtual Collage Jam on March 30, 2020 as an offering to my artistic community so that we could create together -- taking our minds off the pandemic temporarily and feel connected. It took off like crazy, and turned into one of the best experiences of my life! We'd get together every Monday on Zoom, and then YouTube with a common prompt and a few cobbled-together collage materials, spend an hour and a half together talking art, collage, creativity, etc. -- while our hands kept busy making collages. You could feel the stress and anxiety subside as we worked together. Our private Facebook group became a hotbed of collage posting and sharing of ideas and encouragement -- it was truly beautiful!

Kim and I are now taking some time off to re-charge. We had a hectic Fall and early 2020 with two shows each in 3 months -- we were exhausted before covid hit... And when it did, we were compelled to respond as quickly as we could with online classes and our free events to help our community (and us) cope. It became a beautiful thing. We finally got to spend time together again -- such a treat. As designers, we used to work from our home, and now here we were again. Except for the covid anxiety, it felt wonderful. And we got to work with each other again, which was such a treat.

We both LOVE having free YouTube events that anyone can join us for -- or you can watch the replays if you can't join live. Starting in September, our respective events will alternate on Saturday afternoons at 2pm, starting on September 19th with Kim's Virtual Studio Party, followed the next week by the return of my Virtual Collage Jam.
