Zine Club - Teen - Melrose Branch

TEEN ZINE CLUB!
Thursday, October 3rd @ Melrose Branch
3:30-4:30pm

Make your own zines at our monthly Teen Zine Club! Whether you're a regular zinester or you've never heard of them before, this club is a chill space for you to get creative, express yourself, and hang out with fellow zine makers. Each month, we'll offer a creative prompt (ex. current obsession, personal stories, petty rant, poetry, etc.) or workshop a zine technique/approach (ex. zine bindings, embroidered covers, digital design, etc.) to help guide your zine-making, with examples pulled from our teen zine collection.

We provide all the materials: all kinds of paper, pens/markers, magazines to cut up, folding tools, long arm stapler, paper trimmer, scanner, and free photocopying/printing. All you need to bring is yourself and an idea for a zine you want to make! No prior knowledge or experience needed. For teens ages 13-18.

What's a zine? Pronounced "zeen," zines are DIY fanzines made by collaging text and art together to share personal stories and interests often underrepresented by mainstream media. The best thing about zines is that anyone can make them – they're easy, cheap, and can explore literally any topic or theme. No rules, no filters, no algorithm – just pure pre-internet vibes, made by you because you love what you love.
