“Had the incredible opportunity to learn from @audengranger this afternoon! They taught us their method of mosaic collaging- it’s very detailed, and their work ends up beautifully!! It was an absolute joy to learn from [them]. They were so kind, knowledgeable, and encouraging of their students. Grateful to have had the chance to learn from them!!”

“Ill at Ease was well organized and interesting. Auden Granger is articulate and provided insight into their artistic process that intrigued me. For example, the meaning the materials hold for them. I finished a collage of my own after the workshop, and am thinking about the paper I handle routinely in new ways.”

“I loved this workshop! I enjoyed the way the practical hands-on information was mixed with concepts about art and disability in a broader format. The presenter was clear, inclusive and easy to follow. I would love to attend more workshops by this artist!”
