When: August 22, 9:30 - 11:30am and August 29, 10:00 - 12pm or
September 19, 9:30 - 11:30am and September 26 10:00 - 12pm
Where: Sulzer Regional Library, 4455 N. Lincoln Avenue Chicago, IL 60625
In this free, beginner-friendly two-part workshop for adults, students explore color through the creation of simple paper collages that reveal how colors interact, contrast, and harmonize.
Through hands-on exercises, participants will explore how colors interact and influence one another. The first session introduces foundational color relationships, including monochromatic, analogous, and complementary palettes. The second session expands on these concepts through triadic, value, and saturation based schemes, helping students build confidence in using color intentionally and creatively. For the final exercise, participants will create their own cohesive color scheme, using what they've learned throughout the class sessions.
No experience or materials required. Accommodates up to ten students.
