Join Liz Henry for a creative afternoon and make something new and uniquely you. You don’t need any experience – come just as you are. We’ll have materials you can decoupage and take with you.

Wed., Oct. 1, 2025 | 1:00 - 3:30 PT | ASL | Captions | Masks Optional | Outside | Pop-up

Below, in a dark brown background, white text reads “Decoupage + Collage Tomorrow!” The DCC logo is at the bottom. Event details as follows: We love collage as a medium of expression – there are no rules, it’s accessible, it’s for all skill levels, and it gives us space to interpret images, textures, and colors in our own way. When you think of decoupage, you might think flowers and filigree, but decoupage can be whatever you like! Join Liz Henry for a creative afternoon and make something new and uniquely you. You don’t need any experience – come just as you are. We’ll have magazines, fabrics, a photo printer, and fun objects you can decoupage and take with you. Haven’t heard of decoupage? That’s okay! Decoupage is a craft that involves cutting out paper or fabric, adhering it to an object, and applying a topcoat of sealant to create a durable, decorative finish. It’s basically a way of collaging objects and preserving your work. Decoupage + Collage | Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2025 | 1:00 - 3:30 PT | ASL (on-call interpreter) | Captions | Masks Optional | Outside | Pop-up Pop-ups are completely optional activities during open hours, with no advanced registration required. So, you can come by to work, snack, or join the pop-up if it interests you. If you require ASL to participate, we’d love a heads-up (email access@disabilityculturalcenter.org) to try and arrange for an interpreter, but if not we’ll have an on-call interpreter standing by. Captioning is available, just let us know when you arrive, and we’ll make it happen. DCC logo at the top.
