Looking for a ideas to create a socially conscious craft? Meet Zines!
Zines (pronounced zeen, as in maga-zine) are handmade publications that resemble little magazines or chapbooks. They’re a great place to share your ideas about the world, record your opinions, write your memoire, or start a comic.
In this workshop, we’ll learn how to use basic materials to make a small zine, and then work on writing and illustrating our own chapbooks, with the option of contributing your zine to a future project at the library!
Teen Zines is open to young people ages 11-18.
Materials needed:
- a sheet of standard sized printer paper (8.5" x 11")
- a pair of scissors
- pens, pencils, markers, coloured pencils, or anything else you'd like to write with
- optional: magazines + glue for collage, stickers, washi tape, etc.
We’re hosting this virtual program on Zoom. What you’ll need to attend: A computer with microphone (or headphones) and webcam, or your smartphone/tablet.
