Surrealist Games

Surrealist Games & Art Social is a high-energy, low-pressure workshop focused on creativity, collaboration, and play. Participants will experiment with classic surrealist games associated with artists such as Salvador Dalí and Frida Kahlo, along with contemporary variations involving collaborative prompts and unexpected juxtapositions.

The event welcomes everyone, from professional artists and comedians to people with no drawing experience. It is presented as an opportunity to set aside self-criticism, bring a creative friend, and explore surrealist techniques in a social setting. The workshop returns following a previous May edition.
