What is a zine?
A zine (pronounced “zeen”) is a DIY, low-budget, self-made, small publication that allows all voices to be heard. In a zine, anyone can write, print, and distribute their story, ideas, or art however they want to. Unlike traditional publishing, zines are the final product of the individual creator or group and are often “published” with the aid of photocopiers. To learn more about zines, check out this book!
