Zines are handmade books, typically created by individuals, by hand, with basic materials – paper, scissors, pens, and ideas. Zine-making can facilitate the development of personal and community-based storytelling. In this workshop educators from Booklyn, Inc. will teach the one-sheet bookmaking technique to develop a personal story into a handmade zine. Participants will also be invited to contribute to a collectively made book, using the flag book technique. This is a free workshop, no experience is necessary.
