## About this plan

Want to see the images around you in a new way? The Popular Graphics Lab is a free workshop held at the Manuel Zapata Olivella Public Library, Tintal branch. It explores the visual language behind posters, covers, packaging, and city walls. The idea is to take formats, colors, and icons from everyday graphics and rework them with hands-on techniques.

The space welcomes curious people. No prior design or illustration experience needed. Every Wednesday afternoon the group meets to experiment, document, and create their own versions of a popular look that often goes unnoticed yet says a lot about how we communicate.

It is a different plan in Kennedy, perfect if you want a creative, friendly, and free afternoon in Bogota.

- Creative workshop every Wednesday afternoon
