Grades 7th-12th: Create vibrant collages using bold paper and sewing materials as expressions of personal and cultural identity.

Create vibrant, colorful collages using bold paper, sewing patterns, and sewing notions in a program inspired by Derrick Adams’s "Packaged Black" series. His art explores how fashion and self-styling communicate personal and cultural identity. You'll engage with these themes by designing unique collage pieces that reflect your stories and creativity

About the library

Situated on the edge of a busy city neighborhood and within easy driving distance of farms and country-dwellers, Hessen Cassel Branch has been a lifeline for the community since its doors opened in 1972. The library serves as a meeting place for customers of all ages, and is heavily used after school. Hessen Cassel Branch intentionally supports the developmental needs of customers of all ages. From wooden blocks, puppets, and play clothes for children; to classes on art techniques, budgeting, and Allen County history; to an ever-changing collection of print, AV, and electronic materials; we serve a dynamic neighborhood that is rich in cultural and ethnic diversity.
