But at Game Night: Collage, we are throwing that out the window. Bring it, you gluesticks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At this event, teams compete in increasingly ridiculous collage challenges until a winner is crowned. Assembling collage fragments blindfolded, building a collaborative zine in record time, and creating wearable collage fashion are just some of the games you can look forward to. Tap into the silly side of artmaking while being judged harshly by a cast of characters straight out of reality game shows like <em>Hell\u2019s Kitchen<\/em> and <em>Project Runway<\/em>. Only one team can prove themselves the best (prizes are purely hypothetical).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you show up at 7PM (if you&#8217;re brave enough to play) you will be randomly assigned to a team of 4-5 people who you will be stuck with throughout the evening. There&#8217;s only one trophy so if your team wins, then y&#8217;all will have to fight about who gets to keep it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ARTIST BIOS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cheryl Chudyk<\/strong> is a Canadian artist currently based out of Seattle. She has a background in wedding photography, ballet, jazz, and contemporary dance. She dabbles in painting, comics, and poetry, and by day she is a practicing pharmacist. Her collage work has been published in <em>{th ink} Publication, Cults of Life, OLTRE, transitional MOMENTS<\/em>, and four issues of <em>Cut Me Up Magazine<\/em>, and she has exhibited her work in the US and Europe. She is the newsletter editor of The Northwest Collage Society, a member of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thecollageclub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@thecollageclub<\/a> on Instagram, and co-curator and co-founder of Sharp Hands Gallery. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/stitchpixie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram @stitchpixie<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From St. Catharines, Ontario, <strong>Jenn Judson<\/strong> holds a degree from Brock University&#8217;s Visual Arts Department. She spends her time hopping from venue to venue, spreading the joy of collage and broadening art-making opportunities for her community. She is the creative force behind Paper Bananas, a Niagara region-based initiative specializing in collage events, workshops and take-home kits, which goes beyond creating art; Jenn cultivates a dynamic space that encourages creativity, collaboration, and inclusivity, shaping the cultural landscape of Niagara one collage at a time. The artist was recently nominated for a &#8220;Making a Difference&#8221; award at the St. Catharines Arts Awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Kolaj Fest New Orleans is a multi-day festival and symposium about contemporary collage and its role in art, culture, and society, 12-16 June 2024.
