Washington Center for the Book Zine Workshop

Project tags:

community engagement & outreach

As a group, we (Erin Shapland and Zach Wagman) worked with Washington Center for the Book to design a zine workshop. We sought to address a lack of knowledge about zine history among the general public. We also wanted to teach members of the public the basic skills involved in creating zines for oneself, with the hope of fostering a sense of freedom and artistic whimsy in our attendees! We recorded a workshop for all ages that can (and likely will) be used for programs in the future, which will ideally inspire more people to create and learn about zines.
