Description
The Collage Lab
The Collage Lab is a small, informal group of artists exploring collage and mixed media. Formed in 2014 in Ventura as an independent offshoot of the Buenaventura Art Association, the group meets monthly to share ideas, set creative challenges, demonstrate techniques, visit exhibitions, and support one another’s work. Working in collage - derived from the French word “coller,” meaning to glue - the artists combine paper and a wide range of materials. Many members came to collage from other disciplines, including painting, printmaking, photography, textiles, and sculpture, bringing varied approaches into the medium. Their group exhibitions reflect this range, with each artist interpreting collage through their own materials, processes, and perspective. Members are active in local arts organizations, teach and attend workshops, and exhibit both individually and as a group throughout Southern California. About the Venue: Fox Fine Jewelry is committed to bringing all forms of the arts to the general public. Rotating shows are professionally hung and lit. Exceptionally long hours, including nighttime hours, draw visitors in to view the art. Art is hung as a service to the community, promoting art appreciation and enjoyment. Fox Fine Jewelry's jewelry is artistic in design and adds to the experience. The highlight is Fox Fine Jewelry's custom design workshop. All jewelry is made on premises and visitors can view the workshop through the windows in the garden patio. Since their opening in 1998, Fox Fine Jewelry has hosted dozens of charity events supporting the local arts community. Some of the organizations include: Focus on the Masters Rubicon Theater Ventura Music Festival Ventura County Ballet Company Museum of Ventura County Ventura Botanical Gardens and many more. |
