Children aged 8 and up are invited to learn about the exciting subcultural world of zines and artist books. Zines are independently produced magazines or booklets. The content covered in zines is limitless, including personal narrative, drawings and doodles, or fun facts about cats (for example). In this Contemporary Kids workshop, we will cover what a zine is, why making zines is important, and—best of all—how to make a one-page and a digest-sized zine. All supplies provided, including copies of your zine to give to your friends and family!

Contemporary Kids are held on Saturday mornings at 11am, are free and drop-in to children and their caregivers, and refreshments are always provided.
