Course Description


Visual Voice: A Collage Course for Creatives is a 5-week course designed to nourish your creativity and reclaim your inner artist.

Through the practices of collage, reflective writing, and group dialogue, this course offers space to develop a creative practice, build meaningful relationships, and deepen your sense of purpose.

Together, we’ll explore themes of identity, resistance, and care—drawing inspiration from revolutionary artists and thinkers like Romare Bearden and AfriCOBRA.

You’ll receive a creative care pack, weekly prompts, and guided support as you build a personal body of work and contribute to our collaborative zine project.

Whether you're in a moment of transition or craving a more expansive creative practice, Visual Voice invites you to imagine what leadership rooted in creative power can look like.
