Winter Zine Making Workshop
Description
Tuesday, February 11th
2:00 PM - 3:30 PM
Tuition: $5
Folding and unfolding our experiences to celebrate winter and explore our relationship to nature
Zines are handmade books. They are the most democratic and shareable form of bookmaking! In this class we will learn how to use a single sheet of paper, fold it into a book, and use it to delve into our stories. The instructor will guide attendees through creative exercises on our relationships to winter and nature. Through these exercises, we will find and develop our ideas and turn them into stories. We will share our stories to help each other distill them onto the page and into words and/or images.
