Explore the art of zines in a free workshop led by WSU Scholarly Assistant Professor David Janssen Jr. on Saturday, Feb. 8, from 1–3 p.m. at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art WSU. During this workshop we will talk about love and receive an introduction to zines. What is a zine and how do you make one? Using current museum exhibitions, we will discuss artists and makers who use similar themes and feelings in their work. Finally, we will be challenged to create a zine that expresses something about things you love with creative words and images. We will use mixed media processes including collage, free form poetry, illustrations, and more. All are welcome. Enjoy a relaxing workshop and make loving and tender artworks inspired by love.
Free for up to 20 participants, registration is required. When full, a waitlist will be activated and waitlisted individuals will be contacted.
