Let’s Create for Black History Month: Music, Memory & Identity Collage Work

Part of Black History Month. Create artwork inspired by music, memory and identity in a welcoming collage workshop.

Celebrate Black History Month through creativity, conversation and self-expression.

Join us aboard Jena for a hands-on collage workshop exploring the themes of music, memory and identity. Inspired by the stories, experiences and cultural influences that shape our lives, you’ll create your own unique artwork using images, colour and words.

This relaxed and welcoming session encourages participants to reflect on the people, places, music and memories that have influenced who they are.

No previous experience is required and all materials will be provided.
