Learn about Riot Grrrl and how to make your own zine.
Riot Grrrl started in the 1990s when a group of women in Olympia, Washington held a meeting about the sexism in the punk scene. From there, an entire subculture erupted involving art, activism, music, and zines.
While zines have existed since the 1930s (or earlier!), many came out of the Riot Grrrl movement, ranging in topics from feminism, to music, to body image. A zine can be anything you want it to be.
Join us in the Alma Thomas Teen Space on Wednesday, March 16 from 4:00pm to 6:00pm to learn about Riot Grrrl and how to make your own zine.
Once completed, your handmade zine can be added to the Teen Space's in-house zine collection!
Materials will be provided.
