 September 13 - Noon to 2:30pm

In place of this year's retreat the Darien Police Station has been reserved for a meeting

Program Title: Process and Practice-Collage Art

Laura Lein-Svencner has been working in the medium of collage for 25 years. She has established a process and a practice around her art. Laura will share how artists can break rules, connect authentically and if you’ve become distant your art how you can fall back in love with it. The demonstration of her “Tack Down Tuesday’s” will be shared for all to see from beginning to end.
