Have something to share? Make a zine! Explore paper projects, experiment with new techniques and build a zine community.

A zine (/ziːn/ ZEEN; short for magazine or fanzine) is a small-circulation self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images, usually reproduced via a copy machine.

Have something to share? Make a zine! 

WE HAVE: staplers, trimmers, basic drawing supplies, paper, adhesives, scissors, discarded book scraps, scanners, photocopiers (and occasional guest how-tos)
YOU BRING: creativity and inspiration; a desire to show off or learn new techniques; interest in working on zines, comics, artist books, or other paper projects in the library

Program may be unmonitored. Children are welcome with participating adults, older siblings, etc.
