HODGEPODGE – collage poetry workshop with Alex Creece and Mill Newman
Description
Want to make a poem out of anything and everything?
Come get scrappy with HODGEPODGE. Led by poet/collagist Alex Creece and playwright Mill Newman, this session introduces collage poetry through low-pressure games.
Collage offers chance, play and innovation. As a politically charged technique, it allows repurposing, upcycling and reclaiming media. For those daunted by a blank page, collage reframes the page.
Pay as you feel, play as you feel. All ages.
