Saturday 5 April: Zine making

A zine is a self-published, easily reproduced, printed booklet which can be traced back to the 1930s, when science fiction fans began publishing self-published magazines to share their thoughts and build community.

Underground publications have long been a way for people to share stories, raise awareness for causes that matter to them, and connect with their communities.

In this workshop, learn about the origins of zine-making, and develop your very own one-of-a-kind publication to share your story.

Saturday 3 May: Soft and strong sculptures

Soft sculpture is a type of three-dimensional art that uses non-rigid materials like cloth, foam, rubber, or paper to create objects that are soft, squishy, or bent.

In this workshop, create a soft sculpture that celebrates strength. Stitch together your superpower, tape together your truth, or hot glue a mini hero.

Saturday 17 May: Mini clay creatures

Using air dry clay, learn to form small-scale figurines in this hands-on workshop.
