Mark My Words – turn existing words into art!

Create an entirely new text without writing a single word yourself? During our Mark My Words Workshop, you’ll discover just how surprisingly fun that can be.

*Max. 25 participants per workshop.
*Multiple workshops in a row or multiple workshop leaders at the same time are possible. (additional fee)
*We’ll bring the necessary Mark My Words materials.

Each participant receives an existing text, such as a newspaper article. By crossing out, circling, and highlighting words, only the words you want to use remain. This naturally creates a short poem, a funny sentence, a special message, or a catchy quote.

But it doesn’t stop there. Using markers, drawings, and shapes, you’ll then turn the text into a true work of art. This way, we combine language, blackout poetry, and visual art into one creative workshop.

No experience with writing or drawing is necessary. In fact, searching for words that are already right in front of you often leads to surprising, funny, and sometimes even quite poetic results.

And of course, you get to keep your artwork afterward! The various pieces are also great fun to combine into a collage for your home, office, cafeteria, or school, for example.

The workshop is perfect for company outings, team-building days, bachelor/bachelorette parties, groups of family and friends, schools, cultural days, and events.

Our Mark My Words Workshop is available throughout the Netherlands and Belgium, and its duration and content can be tailored to your group.
