PH x Teens: Making the Message & Watercolor Haiku

Teens are invited to a special a back-to-back PH x Teens event!

At 3:30 pm, in partnership with the Young Lordes Collective, PH x Teens invites you to a zine making workshop. The YLC will facilitate a discussion about the use of posters/pamphlets/other printable media in activism. After discussion, teens will make a zine about something that they are passionate about. Teens are encouraged to be as creative as they please. After they create their zines, teens are encouraged to explore Black Power to Black People: Branding the Black Panther Party.

At 5:30pm, Inspired by Satō Kochi’s Five Seasons (1988), teens are invited to learn how to write a haiku using watercolor and calligraphy. Participants will take home a finished artwork, and are encouraged to explore the exhibition Made in Japan: 20th-Century Poster Art.

PH x Teens is a drop-in program for young adults ages 13 to 18. Advanced registration is encouraged, but participants are not expected to stay the entire time.
