Making a ‘Poem-House’

A mixed-media workshop with Artist and Illustrator, Brigid Collins

Birnam Institute   Saturday 8th November,    10 am – 5 pm     , £50

Give your favourite poem a home of its own! Provide the words with a visual context, using collage and simple 3D making techniques.
Materials will be provided, but participants are requested to bring along collage materials they feel to be relevant to the poem, as well as print outs of the poem using different font styles. Please note that, for practical reasons, either short poems or sections of longer poems are most suitable for this workshop.
