Letting Loose with Tissue and Glue - a collage class with Debra Arter
August 18, 2026
"Yesterday's collage class was so much fun I could cry. Going back into the bag of papers and prints I have saved from your monoprint workshops, learning new techniques, meeting new peeps was exactly what I needed. PLEASE save my email and alert me when you are teaching something. I missed your humor, your extensive knowledge and sharing. Thank you so much!" ~ Marie Palluto
Attendees have a wonderful time creating mixed media collage with artist instructor Debra Arter
