Zine Workshop 1-3pm in the Pride Center October 9th and November 6th
Contribute to the end-of-the-year zine or just make art. Good vibes and snacks provided.

Zines (pronounced “ZEENS”) credit their origin to the 1930s and 40s with the creation of a self-published, short magazine by science-fiction fans to discuss the content that they loved. These fan-made zines became widely popular in the 60s and 70s. With the invention of the copy machine and copy shops becoming widely available in the 1970s, the production and growth of the format expanded, and the style of zines was revamped into a more do-it-yourself style. In the 1980s and 1990s, the Riot Grrrl and queercore subcultures inspired a proliferation of zines made by individuals across the globe.

zines can be funny, angry, educational or just cool looking. they are meant to share what’s important to you and your community.

some zines are small like Dr. Bing’s favorite, this one is a love letter to butch, nonbinary and gender non-conforming le****ns.

at zine workshop you can make your own zine or just make a page for the end-of-the-year zine!
