About Teaching Artist Laura Henneforth: Laura Henneforth is a Los Angeles–based collagist whose work explores juxtaposition, play, and the unexpected. Raised in a culturally diverse environment, she developed an early connection to art—drawing before she could read—and continues to approach creativity as a lifelong process of discovery and self-awareness. Her work often incorporates elements of the absurd, encouraging viewers to find humor, curiosity, and new meaning in unlikely combinations. This same spirit guides her teaching. Through workshops and her online presence, she shares collage as an inclusive, low-barrier entry point into art-making, welcoming participants of all ages and skill levels—from first-time makers to experienced artists. Using primarily repurposed and found materials, Laura’s workshops also emphasize sustainability, inviting participants to reimagine everyday paper goods as creative resources. Her teaching prioritizes process over perfection, fostering confidence, experimentation, and personal expression in a supportive and accessible environment.
