Everyone has a story to tell — make your voice heard! Tell Your Own Story is an interactive writing workshop celebrating perzines: handmade magazines featuring personal memoir writing. Through guided free-writing exercises, word mapping, collage, and word games, participants will write and assemble an 8-page perzine.
While participants can choose to attend some but not all of the sessions, you'll get the most out of the workshop by attending all four weeks:
- March 4: You'll learn all about what perzines are and the history of zine making.
- March 11: Dedicated to writing the text of your zine.
- March 18: All about collage and imagery!
- March 25: Work on assembling and printing our zines.
