## About this plan

If graphic arts and community projects catch your eye, this plan in Bogotá is for you. The Fontibón Public Library runs a cocreation lab called Voices of the Forest, a space to connect with the local history through dialogue, neighborhood walks, and graphic exploration.

Across several sessions you will learn by doing, using techniques like collage, frottage, linocut, screen printing, experimental typography, and poster design. The goal is to turn observations, questions, and memories into collective pieces that tell the story of how people live and shape Fontibón.

The final work will join the memory projects the library already runs, keeping the neighborhood stories alive and opening new ways to share them.

- Cocreation lab focused on the memory of Fontibón
- Graphic techniques: collage, frottage, linocut, screen printing, and poster design
- Friday sessions at the Fontibón Public Library
