In honor of International Zine Month: Dive into the history and culture of zine making and punk community and then create your own zine. We’ll look at a wide variety of handmade publications from The Soapbox’s library for inspiration, then warm up with writing exercises and creative brainstorming. You will learn two simple but clever paper folding techniques that you can use that day and in your future zine publishing endeavors. All materials – glue sticks, stencils, clip art, colored pencils, glitter, and more! – will be provided. With Katie Haegele.

Katie Haegele is a writer, editor, and longtime zine maker from Philadelphia. She is the author of three books of creative nonfiction and many personal and critical essays, but her first love is zines and the punk community that surrounds them.
