What is Assemblage?
Assemblage is a playful, three-dimensional art form that brings together everyday objects—items that don’t normally “live together”—to create something completely unique. These found and collected treasures are transformed into art that surprises, delights, and inspires. The process is both fun and a ‘wow’ experience for the artist and the viewer.
In these theme-oriented camps, you’ll create your piece within a box or case, using your imagination and a wide array of curious, salvaged materials. No prior experience is needed—just a willingness to explore and play.
🖼️ Bonus: Participants will have the chance to showcase their work in a group exhibition at the Corner Gallery in Ukiah.
