10 a.m. to noon

Plaza Room, Edmonds Library

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION: What’s a zine? Who makes them, and how? “Zine” (pronounced “zeen”) is a broad, inclusive label for any kind of self-published booklets. Zines are a fun, powerful way for marginalized folx to take control of our own stories and start generating the content we want to see in the world. In this free, hands-on workshop for teens and adults, you will learn four easy-to-recreate zine structures, along with tips and tricks for tabling and selling at zinefests. If you come ready with ideas, you can leave with finished zines of your own. No experience or preregistration necessary!
