COLLAGE IS COMMUNITY - COMMUNITY IS COLLAGE: An International Collection for World Collage Day 2026

I'm thrilled to celebrate the sixth year of hosting an international call for collage art in honor of World Collage Day.During challenging times, we turn to our community, and the collage community is one of the best I know.I asked artists from around the world to create a round collage that was predominantly RED, ORANGE, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, or PURPLE. And, so I present to you a rainbow of collages that show a diversity of style and materials.The 54 collages that I share with you on the following pages are amazing, as is the global collage community.Why do we love this art form so much? Some of the answers appear throughout the book, as I asked collage artists to share with me what community means to them.This book is truly a testament to the deep love of the collage community that is shared by so many. If you have never collaged before, or if you are just starting out, or if you haven't collaged in a while, I encourage you to read this book, enjoy the images, and then - PICK UP SOME PAPER and start creating!I make it easy to jump in through a variety of classes and events at explore.collage-lab.com and I'd love for you to join our little community of collage enthusiasts. Big shout out to the Lab Rats - our members, many of whom are celebrated inside this publication!Previous World Collage Day collections are available through everydaypaper on Amazon - I hope you will take a look.Above all - Keep cutting & pasting!~KellyFeatured artists in COLLAGE IS COMMUNITY:Hazel AnakaJan AusterlitzMary BamboroughSarah CooperAnne CorazzaKathi EverettMai FerreiraLela GoldsteinSandra GrimleyThereze HargreavesCorinna HatjeNaomi JandorfMarta KramerRose LemieuxJackie MentoMary MooreToni NewmanCarol ReifRobert ReinhardtAnn RetallickChristina RosendaulAmy Isabel StoneAndrew ThomassonDebbie TurnerAnkie van de PasKathleen von BalsonCarmen WaderSusan WakalJulie WelshAngie WestCecilia WoffordJo WylesLaurinaFull color images throughoutCurated and edited by Kelly Schaub118 pages8.5" x 8.5" perfectbound paperbackSexy matte cover with cover art by Anne CorazzaAll original collage artwork by collage artists selected in an open call Read more
