Mug Shot Collage for Teens with Donna Caffrey
Donna Caffrey
Courtesy the artist
Did you know a Leporello is a folded booklet named after a character in an Italian opera who started making a list? As the list grew, he needed to fold and add pages to make it manageable!
Teens will cut and collage their own kooky, crazy, whacky family album full of personalised mug shots to make their very own Leporello, with local collage artist Donna Caffrey.
Donna will show students some abstract collage art and then they can make their very own collection of quirky characters in their folded Leporello booklet.
