About this Event
To honor Banned Books Week, started by the American Library Association in 1982 to address a sudden surge in the number of challenges to books, we will be making do-it-yourself (DIY) one-page zines that pay tribute to ideas like intellectual freedom and the right to read whatever you want.
What is a zine? A zine, short for fanzine or magazine, is a DIY subculture self-publication, usually made on paper and reproduced with a photocopier or printer. Zine creators are often motivated by a desire to share knowledge or experience with people.
This is an all-ages, family-friendly event. However, children under 11 must be accompanied by an adult.
All supplies will be provided, and instructions will be given about how to make zines. Drop in anytime between 3pm and 7pm!
