SPICY ZINE X SRC
WORKSHOP
AT NOWADAYS
On March 23, 2022 we supported QTPOC-led artmaking collective SPICY to lead a zinemaking workshop at Nowadays in Ridgewood. SPICY presented short background on zine-making and what it means to them, followed by a group conversation on radically reimagining our storytelling. Afterwards, participants cut, glued, drew and wrote their own zines in line with the evening’s theme of rebirth, renewal and spring.
Before the event, we met with the SPICY collective to think through how we could provide participants with total creative freedom while teaching some basics of zine-making. SPICY collective members shared photos in line with the theme that we then printed as material to be used in the workshop.
At the workshop, we enjoyed seeing everyone collaborate, story-tell and create. The interpretations of the theme and resulting zines were inspriring. We’re excited to be doing another iteration of this zine-making workshop in collaboration with SPICY at Brooklyn Art Book Fair on July 17th at 12:45!
