Zine-Making with Spotlight
Zines, short for “magazines,” are DIY magazines about…anything you want, really. People create zines to share their poetry and stories, express themselves in fandom spaces, and raise awareness about issues important to them and their communities. Whether you want to make art and inform others about your personal experiences, media you love, or social justice, zines are a powerful and accessible medium to get started.

If you’d like to try your hand at the art of zine-making, sign up for this workshop created by Spotlight, the queer student association under UvA Pride. Learn how to fold a basic zine, explore the history of using zines in queer and activist spaces, and let your creative side shine through by making your very own zine. Materials will be provided, but feel free to bring your own as well (especially any magazine cutouts you’d like to use).
