Brighton Zine Club
2019-11-03 14:00 - 16:00 | The Cowley Club, 12 London Road, Brighton, BN1 4JA, United Kingdom
Come and join Brighton Zine Network at our fortnightly(ish) zine club! Zine club is a place to make, learn, and talk about zines in an informal and encouraging space. It is also a place to connect with other zine-makers and zine-interested folk in Brighton, with the aim of creating a collaborative and supportive zine community in the city.
Basic materials (paper, glue, scissors, pens, etc), zines and ‘how-to’ guides will be provided, as will biscuits! Everyone is welcome, whether you’re an experienced zinester or you’ve never made a zine before.
Zine club will run from 2-5pm on Sundays; the dates for 2019 are 29th September, 13th October, 3rd and 17th November, 1st December.
Zine club will be in the Cowley Club Library which is a private room accessed via the main Cowley Club cafe space on London Road or via the back door on Providence Place (see below for access details).
——————————————————–
Who is Brighton Zine Network?
We’re a small group of people with varying levels of zine experience, all living in Brighton. Right now, Brighton Zine Network is mostly just an idea in our heads!
We don’t have preconceived ideas about what BZN is or should be, and we hope that the existence of the zine club will allow for the organic co-creation of a network, involving everyone who attends. We believe in the spirit of DIY and DIT (do-it-together) culture; we think that how Brighton Zine Network grows and evolves in the future is something that everyone has a say in.
——————————————————–
Zine club accessibility:
The group has been started by people who are all some combination of trans, queer, mad, working class, disabled and/or women! We want to continue to centre marginalized people in general.
The first five meetings will be in a private room at the Cowley Club. We’ve chosen this space because it is financially accessible, wheelchair accessible and a rare non-capitalist space in Brighton. Zine club is free to attend; small donations towards the room hire are welcomed but not expected.
Access through the main club involves going both up and down a lot of narrow steps, as well as around narrow corners.
Wheelchair and step-free access is by the back-door, which is located in Providence Place. There is a very slight ‘lip’ on the doorframe into the room. The back door says 52a on it and is decorated with some very distinctive graffiti (see group photos). We will leave this door unlocked during the workshop. If you would like someone to come outside and meet you and open the door, please send us a message in advance and we will give you a phone number to call. Once in the room there is an accessible toilet.
There will be no background music and folk are welcome to leave or arrive at any time. Folk are also welcome to put their headphones on and ignore others as we work and hang out.
We are committed to making the network and club as accessible as possible. If you have any additional accessibility needs please do get in touch with us and we will do our absolute best to meet them.

This year we’re returning to London as part of Science Gallery London’s ON EDGE season to run an edition of the fair which focuses on zines exploring anxiety!
For this edition of the fair, preference for tables goes to anyone who has experience of anxiety, but as always women, queers, POC, disabled people, trans people, fat people, sex workers and anyone who is otherwise marginalised are particularly encouraged to apply!
The event will showcase the work of 20-30 stallholders and other exciting things happening too (details tbc!). Stallholders will be announced in early October.
Interested in tabling? Tables are free! Fill out this form by 20th September: https://forms.gle/vThYcJYwzWuQ7eaZ9
You will be advised if your application is accepted in late September. Anyone who identifies as marginalised and making work about mental health is encouraged to apply. Weirdo Zine Fest supports new zinemakers, so we would also like to encourage new and first time zine makers!

ON EDGE: LIVING IN AN AGE OF ANXIETY
We all experience anxiety to a greater or lesser extent at some point in our lives.
ON EDGE, Science Gallery London’s new season, investigates ways of living with anxiety, and how anxious states of being can fuel positive action.
Running from 19 Sep 2019 – 19 Jan 2020, the exhibition opens a critical conversation around the causes of and responses to anxiety in contemporary society, making visible the connections between individual experiences of anxiety and the wider societal conditions that frame those experiences.
Through artworks, and scientific and collaborative projects, the exhibition and events explore anxiety from many different perspectives. It considers the emotional experience of anxiety, the role of genetics, and how life with anxiety is affected by social factors, economics, class, gender and ethnicity.

Grrrl Groannn Zine 3 Launch
2020-01-10 19:00 - 23:30 | Centrala, Unit 4, Minerva Works, 158 Fazeley Street, Birmingham, B5 5RT, United Kingdom
For one night and one night only… Grrrl Groannn are hosting their first physical event for the launch of their zine issue 3.
The launch will be showcasing 3 hot local music acts alongside an immersive photography exhibition of selected prints from Grrrl Groannn’s infamous live music photo collection – these prints will also be up for sale too.
Zine 3 is Grrrl Groannn”s biggest yet – featuring the likes of: Big Joanie, Sofa King, Camp Cope, Body/Head, Venus, Thyla, Village Bully, Calva Louise, Hinds, Graywave, Dilly Dally, Drahla, Siksa, Aufbau Principle, and Pinky Pinky.
We hope you can join us to celebrate the representation of womxn in the music industry, from local to global scenes, and to give a big ‘fuck you’ to patriarchal attitudes that are still currently existing in all areas of the music industry.
On 27/11/2019, Geoff Ellis (director of TRNSMT’s festival had this to say in regards to their 2020 line-up: “We’d love there to be a higher representation of females but there isn’t, certainly on the acts we’re announcing today. It will be a while until there’s a 50/50 balance. That’s definitely several years ahead for any major festival to achieve because there’s far, far less female artists. We need to get more females picking up guitars, forming bands, playing in bands”.
What a dickhead. This is why we need consistent support for events and initiatives like our own to combat attitudes such as these, and move closer towards gender equality.

Are you zine curious? Ever wanted to make an A5 pamphlet or, dare we say it, even stray into A6? Are you sick of the hum drum world of slick, commodified objects and want the raw visceral adrenaline rush of a hastily sketched comic about going to the shops?
This coffee morning is for you!
Maybe you have a zine you’d like to show off, or you’re half way through making a creation but would like advise on what the next step should be – come, come, come.
What will you see?
There will be coffee.
There will be cake.
There will be an anarchist bookshop.
There will be people who have made things.
You will mingle.
The last one was great. This will might also be great. I guess that’s up to you.

If you are interested in getting involved with Queer Zine Library and want to learn more about cataloguing then get involved!
Cataloguing is a way for new readers to discover zines in our collections and to track where those zines are currently on display. All cataloguing is carried out by QZL volunteers and we are hosting our very first public cataloguing party inviting queer zine makers and queer zine readers to contribute and develop the way we catalogue.
Everyone is welcome regardless of experience. No previous knowledge of cataloguing is necessary, just a passion for queer zines! We want the queer community to challenge ideas of cataloguing and help us build a collective approach to making the library accessible. There will be a chance to spend time with the amazing zines in our library collections, learn the basics of cataloguing from our volunteers, as well as contribute to our collective cataloguing which is always changing and growing.
Spaces are limited and booking is essential. Get in touch if you have any questions about the day queerzinelibrary@gmail.com
Canvas Cafe have provided the community hub meeting space for free in return for a donation to our Pay-it-forward board which provides food and drinks to homeless people in Tower Hamlets.

You can find more info about food options here: https://www.thecanvascafe.org/vegan-cafe

Zines are handmade pamphlets often crafted by minority voices. Please join us to learn about zines and how to make your own at the event. Free to attend but booking essential.
