Stories Through Collage with Kelly Stevenson

In celebration of the UCC 100th Anniversary, the CD Committee is hosting a special multigenerational workshop called Stories Through Collage with local artist Kelly Stevenson. All ages are welcome!

Kelly writes:
Everyone’s stories are important and deserve to be told. In this workshop we will explore ways to use found images, text and personal or family or church related photos to uncover and express our own stories and consider the histories of those who came before us. Discover how art can be used as a form of visual personal archive and way to say “we were here, and we mattered”. No experience necessary to participate.

All materials will be provided to take part in the workshop. Additionally, participants are encouraged to bring copies of personal photos they may wish to use in their projects or other collage materials if so desired. Copies of photos can be made at the Lakeshore United Church office (for a small donation) leading up to the workshop.

This is the perfect opportunity to spend time creating a collage to tell the story of your journey to Lakeshore United. People have come to be at Lakeshore in many different ways. Everyone's story is unique. All are welcome!! Collages can be exhibited in the display at our celebration on June 8.
