Join artist Vic Downey for a collective art-making workshop. Using a multi-layering technique, share and record a memory of your COVID experience. Ages 13-18 years.

Join Vic as she guides participants to record a memory of their lived experience of COVID-19 on a shared canvas.  The resulting artwork will act as a visual map that connects each member of the group in a safe and connected process of collective art making. In partnership with Bellarine Community Health and headspace Ocean Grove.

Vic Downey is best known for her colourful and eclectic paintings which convey her deep connection with plants, place, and people. Vic uses a combination of acrylic, watercolour, pen, and ink to build her artworks over multiple layers in a technique she has developed to convey a sense of depth and deeper meaning within the work. Vic is passionate about the role of art as a healing modality and uses creativity to connect and create a shared language with those that she works with.

**Created works will be exhibited, photographed, and digitised images uploaded to the Geelong Regional Libraries website.

Event attendees will need to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or valid medical exemption upon entry. Thanks for doing your bit to keep our community safe.

The Creative Collective Memory Arts project is funded through the Libraries for Health and Wellbeing Program; an initiative of State Library Victoria (for the Library Board of Victoria) and Public Libraries Victoria under the banner of the Statewide Public Library Development Projects 2020 – 2023
