Event Description:  Join us for a playful and powerful zine-making workshop where we explore the joy of independent publishing and self-expression through folded pages and collage. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or a curious beginner, or simply someone with something to say, this workshop is the perfect opportunity to turn thoughts into tangible zines and share your unique stories with the world! Zines are self-published, DIY mini-magazines that can hold stories, poems, artwork, rants, reflections, and more. Led by Bazinega, this session is open to everyone, especially first-timers.

What to expect:

• A short intro to zines and their cultural/political/artistic history

• Inspiring examples of zines from around the world

• Fun prompts to help you get started

• Hands-on time to create your own 8-page zine

• Guidance on folding, layout, storytelling, and collage

• An optional space to share your zine with others

• A low-pressure, high-play, no-judgement zone

• Take home your own zine—and maybe make new friends!

• An open mind and a story to tell.

• Any personal writing, poems, sketches, or pictures you wish to include (Optional)

• All materials provided. No prior experience needed.
