Lunch N' Learn: Make Your Voice Heard: Zine-Making w/ Blake M & CQAS

  • The Alcove Centre for the Arts 244 7 Avenue Southwest Calgary, AB, T2P 0W6 Canada (map)

Ever wanted to create your own mini-magazine but didn't know where to start?

Join Blake McLeod, Calgary Queer Arts Society (CQAS) Artist-in-Residence, for this hands-on zine-making workshop where you'll transform your ideas into a tangible creative expression over your lunch hour.

Zines have deep roots in underground communities, offering a DIY publishing format that bypasses gatekeepers and amplifies voices often missing from mainstream media. They've been a staple in queer communities for decades—providing space for raw, honest storytelling when traditional channels weren't available to us.

You'll leave with:
• Your own completed mini-zine
• Resources for continuing your zine practice
• New connections with fellow creators

- Free Admission / No experience necessary
