Award-winning artist Miriam Pinkerton will be holding a three-day collage workshop at Sunset River Marketplace on June 10, 11 and 12. This class will be fun for both accomplished artists and beginners. Cost is $110 and includes some of the materials that will be used.

In addition to providing basic design guidelines, Pinkerton will show the class how to dye papers and make coffee papers. She will demonstrate several transfer methods, offering advice on what glues to use and how to use and dye rice papers.
