Zine-making workshop with Zadeh
Join local artist Zadeh for a free, hands-on zine-making workshop. Zadeh is a visual and sculpture artist based in Oshawa, known for working with ceramics, recycled materials, and scanography, as well as for co-creating Zene Magazine. This publication amplifies the creative voices of individuals from across the community.
In this workshop, participants will explore the art of zine-making through the lens of culture and celebration. Together, we’ll reflect on how we celebrate the holiday season, how traditions evolve, and how creativity connects us across cultures. After a quick introduction to the history and DIY spirit of zines, you’ll dive into creating your own personal zine using collage materials like magazines, markers, and stickers.
No experience is needed, just curiosity and a love of creativity! This free session provides an inclusive and welcoming space for experimentation, sharing stories, and celebrating community through art.
