this workshop gives participants the chance to write(design/draw/collage, etc.) and self-publish an original “zine,” and then to display their work at our second-annual ZineFest on Friday, July 29, alongside the work of professional “zinesters” from Memphis and beyond. participants will develop and display their creative writing and art and design skills, and they’ll leave with a better understanding of the elements and power of DIY publishing. participants will also design a collaborative zine during the week, so that each participant leaves with at least two original zines in hand. ZineFest was a big event its first year, and this year should be even better. led by professional zinester and artist Erica S. Qualy.
20 participants / for entering and current middle and high school students
