Overview
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn to make a mini-zine (a tiny handmade book) from a single piece of paper. You will learn about the history of zines in Queer culture as vessels of truth and storytelling outside of normative media. Ranging from personal narratives, to resources for mutual aid, zines have no rules and anyone can make them, no skills required!
Mini-zines are a great way to capture your thoughts, rants, drawings, jots, poetry and writing about a single topic, or everything all at once. During this workshop, we’ll guide you through the process to create your own zine, and many zines to come. Mini-zines are easy to photocopy and share with distant friends and loved ones, or keep and collect as a private record of your experiences of these weird and challenging COVID times. All you need is a piece of paper, a pen, and a point of view.
This event is part of Queer Orientation and is brought to you in partnership with the Equity Studies Student Union. All are welcome!
