In this one-day workshop, we will learn about zines and make our own together! We will learn about the origins of zines (in fan art, DIY music, and political movements) and engage with contemporary zines. We will fold zines and spend time making zines based off prompts individually and collaboratively.

Learning Objectives:

  • Students will be exposed to a wide array of zines to learn about zine history and the local zine scene in Portland
  • Students will learn how to fold a basic simple zine
  • Students will engage in individual and group writing and drawing prompts to get ideas flowing for creating zines

Learning Outcomes:

  • Students will learn how to fold a basic simple zine
  • Students will walk away with two or more zines based on prompts and personal inspiration

Who is this class for?

  • Anyone interested in dipping their toe into zine-making and artist books or those looking to deepen their practice alongside others

Faculty Bio

Jillian Impastato is an arts administrator, educator, and artist who has worked in museums and educational organizations in Maine, Massachusetts, and Norway (the country, not the town in Maine). She teaches workshops on professional development in the arts, slow looking with art and nature, and queer rural zine-making. Her art practice explores stickers-as-form, queer ruralism, deep attention, and secular spiritual care in museum settings.

Teaching Style:
Warm and energetic! I love being a sounding board for ideas and to connect my students to other artists, resources, and sources of inspiration.
