Join us for an all-ages zine-making workshop where you’ll be guided on how to construct and fill a 1-page foldable zine. No artistic background is required, and materials such as colored paper, drawing utensils, and magazines for collaging will be provided. Bring your friends and come have fun creating in community with us! Zines are a self-produced book about anything! (hence the name coming from just the “-zine” portion of “magazine,” like a mini-magazine). Inherently meant to be as low-cost and accessible as possible, zine-making is a no-expectations form of creativity where it’s not about the materials you use, but about giving space to thoughts, observations, and perspectives that would otherwise not be published or considered. Zine Space wishes to share forms of zine-making and means of self-publishing with the public as a means of soft community awareness and self-empowerment. Through zine-making, community members can explore how to freely create for themselves and alongside others without the pressure of expectation. For parking: you can park for free on the bridge on Washington street after school hours! There is also meter parking throughout Union Square.
