MIPSLIP Makes: Zines with Steph
Come make your own zine! We'll be making simple zines using a single page folded into an 8-page mini format. You can write, draw, collage or otherwise fill your zine in any way you'd like.
I (Steph) have been really enjoying this simple format as an easy, playful and fulfilling way to create. It's a wonderful way to put thoughts onto a page, to write a poem, a thank you note, a series of drawings... really a creative exploration of any kind!
What it is
We'll have some open creating time to make one or more zines. We'll share basic instructions, and you'll work independently to create whatever you'd like. We'll close as a group for whoever would like to share what you've created so we can all ooh and ahh.
Who should come
Anyone! No skills needed. You can come with an idea or just a willingness to play with this format.
What you need
Bring a favorite pen and anything specific you'd like to use (e.g. a favorite image or photo, special paper) in your zine. If you have cool materials to share with the group, please feel free to bring extra supplies! We'll supply some basic materials (paper, pens, colored pencils, some collage materials).
Logistics
- Join 2:30 to ~4:30 for time to create your zines
- The event takes place indoors (in a home with a cat). Please stay home if you're sick.
Light snacks will be provided. Feel free to bring extra nibbles.
