Experimental Art-Publishing Exhibition

Zine Making Workshop

Part of Experimental Art-Publishing Exhibition

24 November 2024

Back by popular demand!

Have you heard of zines but never tried making one? Would you like to come and have a go? This workshop at Birnam Arts will take you through some of the techniques that you can use to make a zine. A zine is a small-scale pamphlet or booklet that is not formally published but can be easily photocopied to distribute - if you like!

This zine workshop is part of a research project being conducted by Louisa Preston, supported by the Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland. Louisa is an artist-publisher and researcher at the University of Stirling. Her research project aims to explore creative forms of publishing connected to arts organisations situated in remote and rural areas of Scotland.

This workshop is for adults and children aged 8+. Please note that anyone under 18yrs old must be accompanied by an adult. Everyone attending the workshop must buy a ticket. 

If you would like to learn more about Louisa's research and experimental art-publishing please visit her website: www.researchtown.uk 

You can follow Louisa on Instagram @louisapreston_scribo where she will be posting outcomes of the research under the hashtag #art-publishing-ecosystems

I have played at Birnam Arts as part of Blow and Blast for a number of years and never cease to be amazed by how many activities take place there - too valuable to lose!
