About the course
A zine (pronounced “zeen”) is a small, homemade booklet or magazine. They can be created to share ideas, art, stories, or interests. On this course we will discuss zine making and look at examples, then we will individually explore the Botanic Garden to take photos and do some sketching. Afterwards we will return to the Classroom for more drawing and discussion, and come up with our narrative for our zines. We will then make hand drawn or collaged zines together using cutting and folding techniques and using a photocopier to make a small edition.
Suitable for all abilities
