ZINES FOR TEENS

ZINES FOR TEENS!
INSTRUCTOR: JACQUELINE VIOLA MOULTON

Come and make zines with us! Zines are the perfect vehicle for combining drawing and writing. This class focuses on developing drawing and writing skills for teens while also learning how to tell a cohesive narrative. Recommended for ages 12-18 but you are a little younger or older email Annie to see if this is a great fit for you!—classes@cottonwoodcenterforthearts.com

Zines are a historically rooted method of activist printing, messaging, and creating — a beautifully divergent way of communicating, creating, and archiving your ideas, images, and views on yourself and the world! Zines utilize collage, print-making, writing, images, drawing, and whatever else you can imagine. This class will be an interactive time to create and explore the world of zines in a safe, welcoming, and expressive environment. Together we will explore different genres within zine-making and will make lots of zines together! This class is for anyone looking to play and explore their creativity - no skill set required!

MATERIALS
I will have most everything you need to make zines - BUT if you have these items feel free / please bring them: sharpie, scissors, an X-Acto knife, magazines (and/or anything YOU would like to do a collage zine with), a pencil, pen, tape. I do have these things, so don’t go purchase them just for this, but if you have them, bring them along - you can build your “zine-making” kit as we go through class too! Reach out with any questions at all! Jmoulton@idsva.edu



ABOUT ME  (your zine class leader):
I make philosophy and art zines under the moniker The Depressed Waitress. My website is thedepressedwaitress.com - I love zines and zine culture. I find so much joy in the art of zines and I am so excited to make some really cool art with you all!
