Camp Zine is a one-day workshop focused on the visualization and celebration of queer narratives.

Participants in Camp Zine will be introduced to the processes associated with zine-making, including various forms of zines and how to make them, risograph and laserjet printing, content curation and reappropriation via collage, as well as small- and large-group collaboration.

Through exposure and practice to all things zine, each participant will create their own readymade min0zines from supplies and printing methods made available to them through Camp Zine.

Camp Zine is free! But advance registration is required. All participants will receive 12 copies of their created work.

Supported by a grant from the Iowa Arts Council, and presented collaboratively by the LGBTQ Iowa Archives & Library, PS1, and Astringent Press.
