Create your own mini-underground-magazine in this hands-on zine workshop. Teens ages 13 and up will learn the basics of zine making, including a brief history, collage, drawing, and creative writing. Using paper, magazines, markers, and other craft supplies, participants will design a small self-published booklet that expresses their ideas, stories, art, or interests.

No prior experience is needed—just bring your creativity. All supplies will be provided, and each participant will leave with a finished zine and the skills to continue making their own at home.
