Since September 2025, New Orleans, Louisiana collage artist and clinical social worker Bethanie Mangigian<\/strong> has led the popular workshop series, Collage the Tarot, at Kolaj Institute Gallery. Participants explore the rich imagery of the tarot through intuitive collage-making. Each session invites participants to pull a card (bring a deck or use one of ours), reflect on its meaning, and set a personal intention. From there, participants will create an original collage inspired by the symbols, themes, and messages that arise. “I am passionate about gathering people\u2014artists and non-artists alike\u2014to create together,” wrote Mangigian. “The act of making becomes an odyssey we travel together.” The workshop “is a space to slow down, connect with inner wisdom, play, and express creativity.” No experience with tarot or collage is needed, and participants are invited to bring a notebook if they’d like to journal as part of this practice All materials are provided, and gentle guidance is offered throughout. Participants will leave with a piece of art that reflects their journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event is free for those registered for Kolaj Fest New Orleans. Pre-registration is required.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
