Zine Workshops, Design + Resources for Imagining more CARE-centered futures
We are a CIC bringing together art, activism, archiving and creative technology. We collaborate with artists, campaigners, universities, schools + organisations, using zine-making as a tool for social change, inviting people to imagine and create a more just and equitable world.
Let’s Collaborate!
A space for people to learn, explore and share social justice issues using zines.
Make your own zine, or bring zine-making to a group. Explore our growing zine archive, collection of zine kits and resources for artists, educators, youth workers, organisers, campaigners and people interested in learning about social justice issues.
WHAT IS A ZINE?
Pronounced ‘zeen’, these DIY, self-published, publications have a long history rooted in radical politics.
They tend to be low cost, easy to share, educational, community based - accessible. Long before the birth of the Internet, zines were an underground form of publishing which allowed people to connect with their communities, discuss ideas, and collaborate on writing and artwork. With the dawn of the digital age, zines have evolved with almost limitless possibilities.
All you need to make a zine is a piece of paper and something that makes a mark. They can be about anything and everything and there’s no experience necessary.
Zines help to:
Share educational resources
Build communities of care
Counter mainstream narratives
Express subcultures
Amplify radical messages
Tell stories + explore ideas
Make space for creative expression
