About this event

  • 1 hour

Come along for this wholesome evening of craft and creation with local artist Nat Hues.

In this session, we’ll be exploring collage as a gateway to connecting to identity, community and queer joy. Attendee’s will be provided with resources to create their own self-directed piece(s). There will also be loads of opportunity to chat, have a drink and make friends with other LGBTQ+ folk.


Get creative celebrating our LGBTQ history by making some playful collages - Nat will be bringing imagery of queer icons, quotes and more.


Our facilitator Nat Hues (she/her) is an illustrator and artist with a love of colour, nature and mystery. Her work has been published internationally by clients such as Amnesty International and Usborne Publishing. She may have even tattooed you at her studio “The Aviary" in Headingly.

All materials and tools are provided, but if you'd like to bring some of your own resources along please do!
