COLLAGE is pasting various materials onto a surface to make a new piece of art.

CUT-UPS are word collages made by tearing or cutting an existing text into pieces and rearranging some of the pieces into a poem.

MAKE YOUR OWN cut-up poem & collage using a kit from GALLERY #1 or with your own materials! Kits include a postcard to make your collage on; pages for you to cut-up (from children’s books, the Audubon Society, and Emily Dickinson); and other mixed materials.

SHARE your creation any of these ways:

• MAIL in a post card to be shown in Tiny Gallery #1 and/or in the online community gallery. Use a post card kit from Gallery #1 or make your own collage/cut-up poem and send it to: PO BOX 340, Ashfield, MA 01330.

• EMAIL a photo of your cut-up/collage for posting in the online community gallery. Use a post card kit from Gallery #1 or your own materials and send a photo to: poetryonthepath@gmail.com.

• TAG a photo of your post card on Instagram with #poetryonthepath. With thanks to & blessing from Sophie Chambers who used the phrase “Poetry on the Path” for her poetry installation in Tiny Gallery #4 last year. Let’s make it a thing ;-)
