ELEMENTS of BMC: Waggle Workshop (Collage in Motion)
with Swannatopia + Sally Anne Morgan
Saturday, August 15, 2026 at 12PM
Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center {120 College Street}
Free Registration
Swannatopia is a group of experimental artists headquartered in Swannanoa, NC and residing throughout the Southeastern United States. Over the past decade, they have set out to blur the lines between “artist” and “participant,” to defamiliarize the familiar, to nurture an immersive, whimsical, thoughtful, experience of empowerment and offer a glimpse of what is possible. In this workshop, Swannatopia will explore BEE communication, putting collage in motion through a “NOW TIME” Hexagon Dance. Inspired by traditions of Square Dancing, the Hexagon Dance will be accompanied by musician Sally Anne Morgan.
This event is presented in conjunction with Black Mountain COLL(A)GE (May 29 – September 5, 2026), an exhibition exploring medium, method, and memory.
