Juneteenth Collage Class

  • Bok Bar 800 Mifflin Street Philadelphia, PA, 19148 United States (map)

Doriana Diaz is an Afro-Caribbean multidimensional artist, archivist, and memory worker deeply connected to the vibrant cultural landscape of Philadelphia. Her artistic practice spans a variety of mediums, primarily focusing on collage, cardboard cutouts, cyanotypes and bookmaking, which she uses to engage with themes of loss, memory, fantasy, utopia, formation, and identity. By documenting visual images and narratives, Doriana invites viewers to reflect on their own relationships with memory and cultural heritage. Her work gathers personal and found ephemera to create new archives that blend space, time and location. 

Participants will create their own unique visual collages while exploring themes of freedom, memory, joy, and Black cultural expression. Whether you're an experienced artist or simply curious to create, this workshop welcomes all skill levels.

​Feel free to bring photographs, magazines, papers, or other materials you'd like to incorporate into your collage. All basic supplies—including scissors, glue, paper, and a wide selection of source materials—will be provided.

​Come gather, create, and celebrate Juneteenth through collective art-making and imagination.

​Each guest will receive one Free Drink Ticket at entry to the event section, redeemable for anything at the bar.
