In celebration of Black History Month, McMaster Museum of Art and the Student Wellness Centre are coming together to bring Black students at McMaster a mindful and creative collage workshop facilitated by stylo starr – a Hamilton based visual alchemist, creative movement facilitator and curator.
Find Your Way Back: Grounding Through Creativity will be hosted live on zoom on February 16th, 7-8:30pm. The workshop offers space for uplifting your personal well-being and is a chance to tap into your creative mind.
The workshop will begin with grounding through mindful breathing exercises and gentle seated stretching, followed by a collage making session where stylo will go over tools, tips and tricks. Participants are encouraged to create collaged environments or spaces that create a sense of liberation and joy. The session will close with more mindful breathing and words of gratitude and/or affirmation.
We encourage you to come prepared with some tools to help support your collage practice.
Suggested supplies include:
This event is FREE and open to Black students at McMaster.
