Join artist Harry Cartwright for a collage workshop, hosted at Dona Ajuda’s Environmental & Cultural Space in central Lisbon.
In this two-hour session, Harry will introduce his signature collage technique, a playful and expressive process that combines painting, photography, and drawing. You’ll then be guided to create your own one-of-a-kind collage artwork to take home, using a mix of materials and your own imagination.
Whether you’re an experienced maker or a total beginner, this workshop is a great opportunity to experiment with new ideas, get creative with your family, and explore sustainable artmaking.
