About this event

Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Welcome! We would love you to join our collage workshop, facilitated by exhibiting artists. Together, we’ll explore a variety of materials and you will create your own unique 2D or 3D collage.

Expect a session that’s fun, mesmerising, surprising - perhaps a little frustrating - and almost certainly thought-provoking.

This small, supportive workshop invites you to explore your own interpretation of Navigating Life.

Not sure where to start? No problem. We’ll begin by looking at the surrounding exhibition in a fresh way, take time for introductions, and offer prompts to spark your imagination.

Whether you are new to collage or an experienced maker, you are very welcome.

Your piece might take shape on paper or card (2D) or become something more like a sculpture (3D), ready to hang or suspend.

We’ll provide a wide range of materials - all you need to bring is an open mind and a yearning, or daring, to let your artistry unfold.

Zero to 50

Zero to 50 showcases 3rd age creatives working in photography, art, film, directing, performance, poetry and more.

By becoming visible ourselves and presenting our creative work, we challenge outdated stereotypes of ageing, celebrate late-life creativity, and bring attention to the rich intersectionality of lived experience — including culture, gender, sexuality, class, and identity and more. Our lives are present in our work and are not separate - our creativity often amplifying and extending our previous careers and interests in surprising, fresh ways.

Our website features the work of emerging 3rd age creatives, many of whom come together for joint projects — including our first group exhibition at Whitespace Gallery, Edinburgh from 21 November 2025. Through workshops, and collaborative projects, we create spaces for connection, dialogue, and recognition.

We welcome new 3rd age creatives to join our project! Contact hello@zeroto50.co.uk
