“There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance,” Ophelia says in Shakespeare’s Hamlet. “And there is pansies, that’s for thoughts.” In this workshop, we’ll provide materials and inspiration for creating an artistic collage that references the symbolic meanings of flowers found in Ophelia’s famous speech and other poetic texts, from Emily Dickinson to Audre Lorde.

Artist Fellow Hannah Baker Saltmarsh and collaborative partner Sarah Antine will present a brief lesson on the use of flowers as a symbolic language. Participants will then have time to playfully experiment with a wide array of mixed media art and materials, texts, and floral symbolism to create their own visual collage poems.

Children are welcome to accompany adult participants free of charge. An age-appropriate collage activity will be separately provided for them.
