Zine-making for Personal & Community Storytelling

September 28, 2022

As part of the 2022 Brooklyn Book Festival, we partnered with Brooklyn Community Pride Center to create this free Zine-Making Workshop.

When:

Sep 29, 6:00 PM – 7:45 PM

Where:

BCPC – Crown Heights, 1561 Bedford Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11225

Zines are handmade books. Typically, they are created by individuals, by hand, with basic materials–paper, scissors, pens, and ideas. Zine-making can facilitate the development of personal and community-based storytelling.  

In this workshop educators from Booklyn, Inc. will teach the one-sheet bookmaking technique to develop a personal story into a handmade zine. Participants will also be invited to contribute to a collectively made book, using the flag book technique. This is a free workshop. No experience is necessary. Materials and tools will be provided.  

Please complete and submit the workshop registration form.

THIS IS AN OFFICIAL 2022 BROOKLYN BOOK FESTIVAL BOOKEND EVENT.
