We do not have a physical space or address.
We collaborate with community spaces, galleries, businesses etc to pop up and do events.

If Apple Maps, Google Maps or any other mapping service directs you to Twin Cities Collage Collective as a space, it is incorrect. 

We do not have a physical address.
If you want to donate collage material, please send us an email to make arrangements.

Again, there is no permanent physical address associated with Twin Cities Collage Collective. It appears we show up as a business on some map services, which we are trying to correct.

Thank you.

At these meetups, expect to find stacks of vintage magazines, paper scraps in unexpected places, and a shared sense of excitement in reworking found materials. ✨ For @twincitiescollagecollective founder allison anne (@allisonannecollage), the goal is to provide a welcoming environment for anyone who is interested in working in collage. “We really want to make it as accessible as possible.” 🫶🏽 To learn more about the artists featured in this video, check out their profiles below. Andrea Okeson / @andreaokesonart Christopher Alday / @_hurlyburly_ Jen Shaffer / @jen_shaffer_art Jenna Wynne / @pony_hotline Maggie Carter / @incognitomaggie Margaret Vergara / @marg.verg.art MELMCK / @melmckcollage Sonitha Tep / @f0g.machine Yvette Griffea-gray / @7yvelen allison anne / @allisonannecollage Brady Martin (Brado) / @hmmonmyway Ellis MacMillan / @mothscraps...#artcollective #collageart #twincitiesart #localartist #artofinstagramView all comments
