SUMMARY:Samizdat Sundays and Other Subversions

Come for one or come for all—together we’ll stitch\, alter\, repair\, and imagine new forms of expression. \nSchedule: \nSun\, Dec 7 | Mail Art: Postcards \nCreate postcard collages that can be mailed or not.

This can be a simple folded card\, a collage envelope\, or a folded form that fits a standard envelope. Envelopes may be sewn\, stapled\, pinned\, or altered. Consider the experience of opening the work. \nSun\, Dec 21 | Mail Art:Push the Limits \nMake nonsensical mail art inspired by the idea that anything can be mailed with postage. \nBonus | Mail Art: Letter to the Future or the Past \nDo this on your own or with friends. Create a letter to 2026 or to 2025 using collage\, fabric\, images\, words\, or objects. Mail it\, keep it\, bury it\, or destroy it. \nAbout the teaching artist \nKate Ingold is an LA-based artist and poet working with the discarded\, the damaged\, and the worn out. Materials and methods include textiles\, collage\, photography\, video\, ceramics\, and performative installation.
