Join us for a one-day course with Queens-based therapist and artist Ashley Lagrange. You will learn how to create collage art as a medium for political agitation and propaganda and as a tool for self-reflection and expression. Participants will gather inspiration from collage artists who have created intentional Agitprop and then be provided with prompts and materials to create their own.
