DIY Zine Making Workshop
This Zine making workshop will be led by visual artist Cúan Cusack. Using a plethora of recyclable materials, including old newspapers, magazines and paper based art works, the participants in this workshop will be led on how to make their own Zine.
Fill it with a personal message, your own story or a random collection of things that make you feel good.
This workshop is bound to get your inner child out as you draw, cut glue and stick until your glittery heart is content.
To remove barriers for attendance we have a limited number of stipends available for access and/or childcare costs. Please contact natashaeverittarts@gmail.com to avail of this.
Note: Stipends will be distributed on a first come, first served basis.
