Come along this Friday and Monday to build some Zines; no experience is required ๐Ÿ“’! We'll start by giving you a lightning overview of what Zines can be, how they're made, and what to do. Then, working in groups, we'll each make a short zine. Zines can be (almost) anything:

  • ๐Ÿ’ฅ A short comic
  • ๐ŸŽญ An essay, poem, or short text
  • ๐ŸŽฌ A review of The Room from someone who's never read it
  • ๐Ÿ“ฐ A collage of newspaper clippings about the cost of living
  • ๐Ÿ†’ And more!

Basically - we're hoping that every page will be different, so you'll be welcome and encouraged to use anything from ink โœ๏ธ to computers ๐Ÿ’ป to scissors and glue โœ‚๏ธ
