Zine Activity

Zines are small publications that are created by individuals and fueled by independent vision. In other words, zines are made by ordinary people about the things they love and the ideas close to their hearts. Our zine-making guide [PDF], created by Linette Lao, includes a list of supplies, two challenges, and resources to help you create your own zine.

A zine can be any size or shape but is usually copied or printed and stapled together like a booklet. It could be bound with a rubber band, yarn, or string. It might include drawings, comics, articles, interviews, or anything one can imagine.

If you create a zine, let us know on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram using the hashtag #YpsiWritesZines.
