Collage at Home: Circle Up with Collage - Session 2 (Online Series)
Collage at Home: Circle Up with Collage - Session 2 (Online Series)
Instructor: Karen-Arp Sandel
Day & Time: Friday, 1–2pm
Dates: May 1
Meetings: 1
Location: Online via Zoom
For this collage project, all you need is paper, scissors, and glue.
A circle represents so many things: wholeness, cycles, inclusivity, community, and the shape of planet earth. The grid is a design concept that aligns elements linearly. This collage project combines colorful circles and the grid in a playful, cut-and-paste, paper collage repeat pattern. I will show you how I make a collage like this. You can watch my demonstration to learn how to cut shapes, glue, and even add drawing if you like — easy!
At this time when we are all staying at home and not doing all the things we usually do, art helps us stay connected to our creativity and to other people so we do not feel as isolated. In this class you will spend time expressing a sense of "circling up" in a creative community with visual art.

Online Classes at IS183
Though IS183 Art School has temporarily closed its doors due to the evolving COVID-19 situation, we are committed to our mission to provide hands-on art-making opportunities, keeping creativity alive during this challenging time. Our new Spring Into Online Art series offers digital opportunities to work with talented IS183 Faculty Artists, bringing the studio experience to you!
Tuition
To make these classes as accessible as possible to everyone, we are offering each class with the option to select how much you want to pay. No matter which option you choose, you'll join the same class as everyone else. We trust that you will support IS183 with whatever you can afford, and encourage you to support the school with an additional donation during this challenging time, if possible.
How it Works
Register for a class (or series) on our website, and we will email you a Zoom meeting link along with instructions. Simply use the link to join the online class at the designated time! Download the Zoom app on your smartphone or tablet, or use your laptop/desktop web browser. The web browser client will download automatically when you join your first Zoom meeting. (Have a look at this Zoom overview.)
You will join a live, interactive lesson presented in real-time by an IS183 Faculty Artist. Small class sizes will allow you to engage personally with the instructor and other students, just like in the studio! Faculty lessons will primarily be demonstration-based, but may have segments in which students are challenged to work on independent assignments. Each class and faculty approach will be unique!
Thank you for continuing to make art and support IS183 Art School! We look forward to seeing you in the (virtual) studios!
