Join Community Artist and analog aficionado for a weekly collage and chill session at the Cambridge KiOSK. Radical Collage Collective knows no limits; we use scissors, glue, and paper to sort out all our problems. Each Wednesday in October, we will gather, leave our day lives behind, and search for our dreams among discarded magazines and books. By the end of each session, we will have created meaning from something and left the rest as scraps on the ground to be swept up.&nbsp; No collage experience required. Come to one or all four sessions! Attendance at the previous sessions is not required.
