Collage is accessible to everyone, regardless of art experience. Through the collage process, we discover visual and emotional connections. It can evoke memories, dreams, and intentions, and celebrate or reframe relationships. Explore our themes, choose your own theme, or let a theme find you.

Materials list and location (near freeway/public transit) sent on registration.

People ages 15-115 of all genders, cultural and art backgrounds are welcome.

Marsha Connell, MA, art instructor at Santa Rosa Junior College, is dedicated to fostering joy through creative process. She’s also taught in Sonoma State’s Depth Psychology program and venues across the continent. Marsha’s Dream Vessels collages began as letters to her daughter, Reba.

L. Rebecca (Reba) Connell, LCSW, LCS 19814, owns Center for Stress Reduction, Oakland, where she offers expressive art & mindful therapy. She specializes in working with the LGBT community and is pursuing certification as a Gottman couples therapist. Reba has been practicing meditation, tai chi and yoga since 1999. *Please note: this art workshop is not psychotherapy.

We encourage early registration; space is limited. Come alone or with a special family member or friend.
