Join us for a hands on fun one and half day in the studio, combining photography (we’ll have a model or two to work with), graphic design, word-smithing – an expression (writing); we put that on to the pages of the zine structure; we peer review it, confirm it and then send it right away to print! At the end of the day, we will be holding a physical copy of our zine. It might not be perfect, it might not be polished, but it will be real – of the moment – shared with an echo of others on double-sided pages, tangible in your hands – something you made here and now. That is the spirit of zine making.  

Traditionally Zines were used by photographers, musicians, edgy-political commentators to get a message out to the masses, to those who picked up a copy of this little booklet. Often with a provocative or attractive cover, with either a picture, statement, graphic or all of them combined. This Workshop is a one day, intense session, designed to create your message for the pages of the zine. 

Whatever you want to say:

If you had a double spread page what would be your message? It could be wisdom, it could be a small story, an anecdote that moved you; compelled you to share it with people of the world. It’s all about expression and that is what art does best! We want to express ourselves with our skills to create something physical.
