Rebelle Zine: [UP]ROOT Launch Party

Rebelle Zine is a creative collective based in Toronto, Canada. Our multi-platform publication highlights diverse women and queer artists. Find us at rebellezine.com and @rebellezine (Instagram/TikTok).

In healthy forest ecosystems, trees exist in a cooperative relationship with each other, sharing nutrients and information through their roots. Rebelle Zine Issue 07: [UP]ROOT aims to dig deep and explore how we are not so different from the trees.

This collection of articles and artistic works focuses on communities, knowledge, and traditions that have been uprooted. It highlights what happens when they are replanted, and the inspiring ways that folks are using learnings from generations passed to inform our future. [UP]ROOT serves to remind us that when we nurture our relationships with each other and the earth, we are all so much richer for it.

The [UP]ROOT Launch Party is a celebration of Rebelle Zine’s seventh issue release — and we want you to be there! We are planning to host a marketplace and cultural exchange, with performances, galleries, interactive exhibits and pop-ups – telling the stories of identity and cultural roots here in Toronto. We invite you to come in cultural-inspired attire or earthy tones!

When? Saturday, Nov 30 from 1-4pm

Where? Monarch Tavern (12 Clinton St), Toronto
