UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Join us for a workshop in making your own mini-zine at the Woskob Family Gallery, during Downtown State College’s September First Friday, from 5 to 8 p.m. on Sept. 7.
Gallery staff will lead participants of all ages in creating their own mini-zine using the contents of their own pockets. Drop-ins are welcome throughout the evening, and no experience is necessary.
The Pocket Poetry Mobile Zine Library is a project of artist Breanne Trammell, whose work appears in the Summer Reading exhibition. Participants will create an eight-page zine from a single sheet of paper, using the contents of their own pockets as subject matter and the artist’s portable copy machine as a tool. Participants will receive two copies of their zine to take home; one goes to the cart library; one to Trammell’s teaching collection; and one to a local special collections archive (if applicable).
