The Happy Kingston Collage is a series of five art and reflection workshops, where we'll reconnect with the everyday things that bring us joy.

Using collage, other forms of mark-making, and discussion prompts we'll explore together what living happy lives in Kingston Upon Thames can look like. Inspired by long-term thinking principles, prompts will take us on a journey of reconnecting to ourselves , others (including other species) , place , and time - and encourage us to think about our own individual and collective resilience.

Workshops are free with all materials provided, and everyone is welcome to attend multiple sessions. Each of the five sessions explores a different theme, and these are repeated at different venues across the borough. Register for free on Eventbrite to attend, or directly with the library.

"I attended the workshop with my friend, she had seen it advertised. Unsure of what to expect I was pleasantly surprised by how relaxing I found it." - Ann
