Participants will learn about the history of zines, and get to look at examples from Amy&rsquo;s personal collection. We will then dig in and using collaged, text-based, and hand-drawn elements, each make a page(s) to create a collaborative zine based on CRIPSiE&rsquo;s 2026-27 season theme: Nothing About Us, Without Us. Each participant will receive a copy of the finished zine, and copies will be available for purchase at CRIPSiE events throughout the season.&nbsp; We will provide all supplies and instruction. No previous experience necessary!
