Drop-In Zine-Making at Countway

This month's theme is Environmental Justice!

We'll show you how to turn your interests and ideas into a creative and visually engaging zine.

(We will also have snacks and some fun swag items!)

Monthly zine-making workshops 

Are you interested in alternative publishing? Do you want to express an idea in a new way? Are you bored on a Wednesday?

Well, zines may just be the thing for you!

Join us for monthly drop-in zine-making sessions at Countway Library.

You bring the ideas; we'll bring the supplies and encouragement! No prior experience needed!

What exactly is a zine?

Zines [pronounced ZEEN] are a self-owned means of publishing that has a variety of lineages including underground Black literary publishing, science fiction fandom, Punk culture, the Queer community, and Feminist organizers. Zines can be on any topic as mundane as a tribute to your favorite sodas, as useful as a cookbook, or even supplement a conference presentation with a memorable handout. 

No artistic talent or prior experience required! But we do encourage doodlers, collagists, paper artists, scrapbookers, and the otherwise artistically inclined to join for a fun drop-in session.
