They approached the director of the Monongalia Art Center, Ro Brooks, and the group was born. Since then, they have been meeting weekly for close to a year and a half. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>MISSION<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal of Morgantown Collage Collective has always been to provide a space for artists and art enthusiasts to get together and create collage. They provide all of the supplies so that the meet-ups can remain open and free to all who are interested. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"663\" src=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Nikola-Janevski-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Nikola-Janevski-1.jpg 700w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Nikola-Janevski-1-300x284.jpg 300w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Nikola-Janevski-1-210x199.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Collage by Nikola Janevski<br>Courtesy of the artist.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>ASSOCIATION<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Other active members are Nick Stamm and Elisha Rush, who have been there since the beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>JOIN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone interested can show up to one of their meetings or follow the group on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>KEY ACTIVITES<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Weekly Meet-Up<\/strong><br>The group has a collage meeting every Wednesday from 5-7PM at the  Monongalia Art Center on High Street in Morgantown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Special Projects<\/strong><br>The group has worked on collaborative collages, including a backdrop for a children&#8217;s theater group and a large scale interpretation of the Medusa head by Caravaggio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>CONTACT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/morgantowncollagecollective\/\">INSTAGRAM <\/a>| <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/morgantown.collage.collective\/\" target=\"_blank\">FACEBOOK <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"368\" src=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Screen-Shot-2019-12-29-at-9.51.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-45\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Screen-Shot-2019-12-29-at-9.51.jpg 700w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Screen-Shot-2019-12-29-at-9.51-300x158.jpg 300w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Screen-Shot-2019-12-29-at-9.51-210x110.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Morgantown, West Virginia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":43,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[28,4],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Skull.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":574,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42\/revisions\/574"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/43"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/collage-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
