Collage workshop and sauna in Vilnius, 29 October

A collage workshop with a sauna afterwards: that is the plan for Thursday 29 October 2026, 18:30, at ZOLAK in Vilnius. Artist Natallia Karneyeva leads an evening of cutting, gluing and combining things that do not belong together, and then you can warm up in the sauna. Entry is free.

What happens at the collage workshop

The organisers describe it as an evening of creativity, experiments and rest. You cut, glue and combine the "uncombinable" and make your own collages; you also get to relax in the sauna, meet people and spend a good evening. There are no rules, only paper, images and room for creativity: a chance to step away from everyday noise, let your imagination go and look at familiar things in a new way.

You do not need to be able to draw. Collage is the easiest way into making art: you start from images that already exist, and the skill is in choosing and arranging them.

About the artist

The workshop is led by Natallia Karneyeva, whose collage exhibition "Paper Pie" (Папяровы пірог) opened at ZOLAK on 29 September. The text of this event is in Belarusian; if you are not sure about the language of the evening, ask the organisers.
