Here’s what we’d do
Use scrap paper, old magazines, and glue to make a small collage. Pick one loose prompt, such as a place you would like to be, and make showing the finished piece optional.
How to make it happen
Go at your own pace.
- Before inviting
Set up the plan
Gather paper, scissors, glue, and a protective surface; ask people to bring only materials they already have.
- Together
Give the activity room
Start with ten minutes of collecting shapes and colors before assembling anything.
- A good ending
Finish without pressure
Leave time for glue to settle and let people take their work home without a critique.
Choose your version
A few things to know
Scrap supplies; agree before buying extras
Scrap supplies; agree before buying extras. This is a suggested spending arrangement, not a current price quote. Agree on the total and any contributions before anyone buys supplies or commits to a venue.
Is this your kind of plan?
Digital mood boards on personal devices. Less mess, but introduces screen time and different tool familiarity.
- Check that materials can be cut up and that everyone has a usable pair of scissors.
- Confirm the headcount, date, and finish time before making purchases or reservations.

Make the link useful
Gather paper, scissors, glue, and a protective surface; ask people to bring only materials they already have. Include the date, start and finish, meeting point or call link, and the spending arrangement. The suggested duration is a starting point you can change.
Keep a good idea
Good idea. Maybe later?
Save it for your people, or choose when to revisit it.

Good questions
What if I am bad at art?
Choose shapes and colors you like; this is a shared making session, not a judged art assignment.
What should we confirm before making this definite?
Check that materials can be cut up and that everyone has a usable pair of scissors. Gather paper, scissors, glue, and a protective surface; ask people to bring only materials they already have.
