The workshop will guide you through some warm-up drawing exercises, introduce zine making and zine binding methods, and use expressive drawing and zine construction to explore how we can be more mindful of our surroundings.

Optional extras:

Needle and thread, glue, tape, markers, Post-It notes, scrap paper, collage materials (we'll send you some more tips for materials when you sign up)
