We say YES to zine libraries!
May 16th, 2011 Comments Off
The Grove Library (aided & abetted by the Perth Zine Collective) is launching their brand-new zine collection this Saturday! Come hang out with us to mark the occasion with some zine making & letter writing fun.
When: Saturday 21st May, 1-4 pm
Where: The Grove Library, 1 Leake St Peppermint Grove
Facebook event (so the internet reminds you to come, you forgetful people): here
- Bring a zine project you’re working on, or start one from scratch. Learn how to fold an A7 minizine out of a single A4 page: quick to make, simple to fold, cheap to reproduce, beautiful to read.
- Write a letter to your grandma/favourite band/MP/Year 3 teacher. Decorate with stickers & collage, make a cool envelope, add stamp, post. Wait by the letterbox every day with bated breath.
We’ll provide typewriters, collage materials & stationery…not to mention a library-worth of material to photocopy. Feel free to bring your own art materials too.
Additionally, Aunty Mabel’s Zine Distro will be in attendance with their best smiles & 60+ zines for sale! (Note: smiles not for sale.)
