Program Description

Event Details

There's something special about turning old stuff into new stuff. With blackout poetry, you use subtraction and redaction to reveal your own hidden message, rhyme, or verse; add another layer with clippings from periodicals and other materials to form a collage, and you've got totally original art that colors our world!
