Hope Amico

Hope Amico (they/them) is a visual artist, writer, and educator who believes we could all use a creative practice. Through classes, collage meetups and the Keep Writing postcard project, they are excited to share ways we can support each other creatively. A zine writer since the late 90’s, they continue to share nostalgic and ephemeral stories as part of a narrative about geography and loss. Co-founder of the New Orleans Collage Collective and previously known as gutwrench press, they relocated to Portland, OR in 2020. They teach online and in-person through the MCBA, SFCB, and privately.
