Zines (pronounced “zeen”) are self-published mini magazines. Zines were used as a form of counterculture in the 70’s through the punk scene due to their accessibility and political nature. They can be a form of social justice and advocacy. Today, there are no rules for making a zine; it can be about anything you are interested in. Our zines can look like comics, illustrations, short poems or stories, collages, photography, sketches, how-tos, etc.

FAM invited folks to come learn how to turn a single piece of paper into a self-published piece of art during Nuit Blanche Eve, led by both artist mentors and emerging artists: Jody Lerat, Alana Moore, Noah Roy, Brooklyn Carriere, Ailah Carpenter, Alea Pambrun-Head & Dom Little.
