SUMMARY:Junk Journaling with Ta-da
DESCRIPTION:Ta-Da – Junk Journaling: \nCome junk journal with Ta-Da! \nTa-Da will supply blank journals and have lots of materials for collages. If you have a drawer of old tickets\, stickers\, photos\, and brochures that you have always intended to lovingly create a scrapbook with\, this is their moment to shine! It’s not perfect\, but it’s fun\, messy\, and the result is usually way more exciting than a carefully curated scrapbook. Come glue\, stamp\, draw\, and sew with Ta-Da! \nTo save a spot\, register via the Eventbrite link. \nTa-da is a proposed creative studio and community space in Québec City. The enterprise is being developed to address a gap in the local market: a welcoming\, affordable\, flexible place open daily\, where people can simply arrive and create\, without the barriers of expensive equipment\, rigid schedules\, long-term commitments\, or intimidating cultural environments. \nTa-da combines shared studio access\, creative co-working\, community programming\, workshops\, small-scale gallery retail\, and inclusive social space. The project is intentionally designed to support neurodivergent adults\, LGBTQ+ community members\, immigrants and newcomers\, while remaining open to all…
