SUMMARY:In Her Shoes Anti-Racist Zine Making Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Zines are small\, self-made mini magazines that can be about anything – from what you did last week\, to your personal\, political and social life. \nIn the 1990s\, women involved in the punk rock scene formed feminist zine collectives in order to publish and share their experiences of prejudice and discrimination. At GWL we have thousands of fabulous zines to inspire all women. \nAt this workshop for women of colour we will explore our own experiences of racism\, learn about the historical use of zines within social activism\, and work together to create our own unique zine that challenges racism and sexism in Scotland. \nThis workshop is FREE but space is limited so booking is required – please reserve your place using the form below. \nThis workshop is part of our In Her Shoes project. For more information\, please contact In Her Shoes Development Worker Rachel Thain-Gray rachel.thain-gray@womenslibrary.org.uk

In short\, we’re celebrating female creativity\, with the end goal of raising money for a very worthy cause. \nAbout Inkwell Arts\nInkwell Arts is a safe\, dedicated arts space that enriches lives through creativity\, and promoting positive mental health. The entire project is charity-run\, and relies on help from Leeds Mind to offer a creative shelter to those in the community that need it most. \nFAQs\nWhere can I contact the organizer with any questions? \nFeel free to email us at hello@kvinde.co.uk. \nDo I have to bring my printed ticket to the event? \nIf possible\, yes please! Tickets on the Eventbrite app or shown to us on an email are more than fine too. \nWhat is the refund policy? \nAs this is a charity fundrasining event\, we can’t offer refunds. If you do find yourself unable to make the event after purchasing a ticket\, please do still get in touch – we can look at posting you a copy of the zine\, and reallocating your space to someone else as our venue capacity is very limited.

SUMMARY:Agency : Make your Mark
DESCRIPTION:Agency : Make your Mark is a participatory zine-making project created throughout the summer at Arnolfini\, conceived and facilitated by artist Rachael House. \n\nAgency : Make your Mark talks about how we survive\, and pass on ideas of how to make things better\, for ourselves\, other people and the planet. In tiny ways – or thinking on a BIG scale. “It’s important to remember that we have some agency in the world\, and that our actions have consequences”. \nIn 2016\, in times just as difficult as the late 1970s\, zines are still a way for us to connect with each other\, to have a voice. We don’t have to be ‘experts’\, zines are for all of us\, we all have something to say and a need to be heard. Small lo-fi publications\, we can use zines to reach out to others\, to campaign\, to find our people\, locally\, nationally and internationally. \nNo previous experience necessary\, this is a drop-in activity for all ages and abilities produced by artist Rachael House – just come along\, join-in and DIY. \nSaturday August 13  1-5pm\, Gallery 1 \nRachael will present tips on how to ‘zine’ and audiences are invited to discover how to make their own one-off zine using a single sheet of A4 paper and/or contribute a single page (or two or three) to a larger zine\, to be published after the summer. \n  \nAgency : Make your Mark zine sessions continue every day throughout August & September in Gallery 1 facilitated by Arnolfini project volunteers. \n  \nSaturday 10 September 11-5pm\, Gallery 1 \nDuring this final session\, Rachael will present a short performative talk about zine culture. The rest of the session will be for both audiences and participants to view and select works made throughout the summer to be collated and layed out to create a final printed zine. \n  \nRachael House is an artist lucky and unlucky enough to come of age in the punk era. She carries with her from that time a belief in DIY; if you want something to happen you can make it happen. From dyeing your hair\, forming a band\, customising your clothes to making a zine. \nRachael makes events\, objects\, performances\, comic strips and zines. In the 1990s Rachael was part of the thriving queerzine scene\, with her autobiographical comic Red Hanky Panky. She continues to make zines and comic strips as part of and alongside her fine art practice. Her recent projects and exhibitions include Focus on Feminism and Gender\, New Hall Art Collection\, Cambridge\, There Is An Alternative! Critical Comics and Cartoons\, University of Kent\, Comix Creatrix- 100 women making comics at House of Illustration\, London\, Queer Feminist Disco at Bent Fest\, Powerlunches\, London\, Feminism and zines- changing the world with comic strips\, part of Future Perfect: The Changing Face of Girls’ Comics\, LJMU Special Collections and Archives\, Liverpool and Challenge Heteronormativity at the V&A\, London. \nJoin in the conversation using #bristolpunk.

SUMMARY:Zines in the Suburbs Expo
