In this hands-on workshop, you\u2019ll design and create your very own 11\u201d x 18\u201d poster using text, paint, and collage techniques. We\u2019ll start by chatting about powerful phrases that speak to you, something that inspires you, makes you laugh, or just feels you. Then, we\u2019ll dive into mixing words with images, experimenting with bold designs, layered textures, and eye-catching layouts. Whether you want your message front and center or hidden in the background, this is your chance to turn your thoughts into art and take home a piece that\u2019s your vibe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>This is a free community workshop.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group bullet-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons buttons is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-12a27398 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter bottom-button is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px;color:#ff00ff;background-color:#ff00ff\">Book your RENTAL<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons buttons is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-12a27398 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter  is-style-fill top-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px;color:#00ccff;background-color:#00ccff\">Book your RENTAL<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons buttons is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-12a27398 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button top-button text is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/teenworkshop.eventbrite.com\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">REGISTer TODAY<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-23441af8 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-container rectangle-left uagb-block-c5c2fe97 alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-container rectangle-middle uagb-block-85d70259 alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-container rectangle-right uagb-block-14a79c45 alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ACCESSIBILITY &amp; INCLUSION<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re committed to making all programs at the Junior Center of Art and Science accessible and inclusive.
