Description
Are you interested in a new and creative way to tell people about
your thesis or other major project?
Join us for a new workshop with Mary Ruge, Liaison Librarian in
Liberal Arts (and comics scholarship aficionado), to learn how to turn
their thesis, essay, or whatever you want into a zine!
A zine (pronounced ZEEN) is a self-published, non-commercial print
work that allows you to infuse some creativity into your scholarship
while making all of your hard work more accessible to peers and
novices alike! No prior zine-making experience is required. All you
will need is an idea (already written or still being conceived) and an
openness to getting creative. Examples and art supplies will be provided.
Registration is appreciated for the workshop organizers'
preparation but is not required. All are welcome though the program
will be most suitable for upper grade levels, college students, and
adult learners.
If you or any individuals with disabilities in your group need accessibility accommodations, please contact Stacey Burns, University Libraries Programs and Outreach Manager, at [email protected] to communicate your needs.
This event also appears on the main events calendar tagged as academic, arts, laker, lakercon, lakerwelcome, and library.
