Make a Zine! The zine is an inexpensive self published collaboration
between art and writing which is customarily created by physically cutting
and gluing text and images together onto a master flat to be photocopied and
turned into a book. The concept of a zine began in the 1920s and gained popularity with the punk subculture of the ‘70s when zines were used to promote
music. Find your voice and create your own zine in this interesting creative
class!

...Teens for grades 6-12
Our Teen Camp is a great option for teens that love art and might be too old for,
or bored by traditional day camps. Each one-week session will focus intensively on a single topic. Our goal is to instill in each camper the skills needed to
continue to explore the subject independently.
