New York-based pop artist and author Michael Albert will offer a Pop Art Collage workshop at the Lake Placid Public Library. Beginning with an artist presentation, the event continues with a hands-on workshop where attendees will make their own pop art collage, and will finish with a free poster giveaway and signing for all. This event will run twice; 3:00 will be geared toward children and families, and 5:00 will be for adults.

Albert is nationally known for making art from cereal boxes and other printed cardboard consumer brand packages. Since the publishing of his book, an artist’s autobiography titled, “An Artist’s America” by Henry Holt in 2008, Albert has developed a traveling Pop Art Enrichment Program & Hands-On Collage Workshop for kids (school age & up), teens, adults & as a multi-generational event called the “Modern Pop Art Experi-ence” which he has brought to more than 1,000 schools, libraries, museums, art festivals & special events in most of the United States & in Europe.

His artwork will be on display in the Guy Brewster Hughes Gallery for the month of July.
