Saturdate returns in 2026 to celebrate all things zine! Create your own zine at the Pirate Readers Workshop, discover unique finds from local small businesses, and enjoy a refreshing drink from Jui Coffee as you connect with fellow creatives.
FEBRUARY ACTIVITIES
1) Pirate Readers Vol. 2 Workshop by Vanessa Ban
2pm – 3.30pm
$15 per pax (Bundle discount available)
Register or find out more about the workshop on our website.
Pirate Readers Vol. 2 is a hands-on workshop that invites participants to resist the ways algorithms visually shape the artistic knowledge we consume. Rather than passively absorbing content, participants actively naviagte selections from the Objectifs Library, pirating pages, text, and images they’re drawn to. Through this process, each participant assembles their own pirate reader, reflecting their current interests while tracing new directions their curiosity might grow.
