It's All About ZINES! hosted by Collins Library (Online)

Schedule: Dec 8, 2020; 
4pm - 5pm (PT); 5pm- 6pm (MT); 6pm - 7pm (CT); 7pm - 8pm (ET); 

Join zine enthusiasts Adriana Flores, Archivist and Special Collections Librarian, and Katy Curtis, Humanities Librarian, from Collins Library for an informal, hands-on zine event! Adriana & Katy will share their zine-related work at Puget Sound and will lead participants in a minizine tutorial. Minizines only use one sheet of paper and can be a great way to creatively connect with friends and family over the holidays (and any time of year!).  During this event, Adriana & Katy will provide prompts for making a holiday minizine, so come prepared with ideas and festive supplies!  After this hour, you will be able to replicate this approach with your own groups and friends.

For this Zoom event, you’ll need the following supplies:
- Paper (preferably 8x11 printer paper, but any rectangular paper will work!)
- Writing implements (pen, pencil, markers, gel pens, etc.)
- Scissors (if you don’t have scissors, you can tear it)
Optional: Glue stick or tape, stickers, decorative paper, magazines/news clippings, and anything else you want to create with (photographs, wrapping paper, dried plants, fabric, etc!

In addition, Adriana & Katy will share information on the upcoming Washington State Zine Contest!  You may consider submitting an entry after this workshop!  

This is our final event of 2020 and we think this is a great way to end the year on a positive note!
