Dive into the exciting world of self-publishing with this hands-on workshop designed especially for children aged 9 to 13. Whether your child has a story to tell or just loves getting creative, this workshop offers a fantastic opportunity to explore art in a playful and dynamic way. No prior experience is needed—just imagination and enthusiasm!
Participants will learn how to design, fold, and create their very own mini-magazine, known as a zine. Using markers, ink, and pens, kids will rip, cut, and paste wild visuals to bring their ideas to life. This is a chance for young creators to carve out their own style and leave a unique mark.
By the end of the session, each child will walk away with a completed masterpiece and the skills to create many more zines at home. All materials are supplied, so just bring your creativity and get ready for a fun, messy, and inspiring experience.
This action-packed workshop is led by artist Lina Tesoriero, who will guide participants through every step of the zine-making process. It is tailored for children aged 9 to 13 and runs for two hours, providing plenty of time to explore and experiment.
The workshop encourages hands-on learning and creative expression, making it perfect for school holiday fun. Children will be supported to develop their artistic skills while enjoying a relaxed and friendly environment.
All necessary materials are provided, and children will be able to take their finished projects home, making this a memorable and rewarding activity.
