Are you interested in cutting, copying, duplicating, moving, and (re)arranging? Do you want to create your own images, but not necessarily draw or paint? Then join us in this perfect sunday workshop!

What exactly makes a good collage? Are they made out of just paper? Or do you add other materials as well? And how do you know when to keep playing, keep discovering, and then to stop at the right moment?

Today you'll discover this with Antonia Rehnen. You're welcome to bring your own images, but of course, VRIJDAG also has additional paper and materials available. 

Bonus: The Groningen Archives have provided a box of old/double photos of the city and surrounding area for us to work with today. Unique material that will certainly inspire you to go home with unique works at the end of the day!

Perhaps they'll make great gifts or even a nice souvenir of Groningen? 

This workshop will be taught in English, but of course everyone is welcome to join!
