Are you crafty and curious? Do you have something to say or to show? Why not learn how to create, publish and distribute your own zine! But what IS a zine, anyway? A zine is a casual and self-published work that falls somewhere between a mini-comic and a fanzine. They are usually stapled, glued, folded, cut and collaged. They can be any size. They can be about any subject and serve any audience. No writing or drawing “talent” is required – only a passion to communicate! Through a mix of in-person and at-home assignments, students will explore the history of zines, complete a variety of fun projects, and work toward publishing their own personal zine that will be collected in a special section of the YA room at the GPL.
