Art on The Meadow - Lookhear Zine Workshop

LookHear Zine Workshop runs Thursday, September 17th, 10AM-5PM, taught by Mac Akin, and costs $100.

This workshop will focus on simple and accessible two-dimensional processes, incorporating word and image to create self-published books, pamphlets, and ephemera. Using collage, drawing, writing, and analog image reproduction techniques, students will learn a variety of skills to create, edit, and publish their own zines. Students will have access to the collection of self-published material at LookHear Library to reference for their projects, and are encouraged to bring reference materials of their own to share in the class library.

Art on the Meadow is a unique program, providing an intergenerational space for students to come together in the inspiring natural environment at Ox-Bow for half day, one day, or short term multi-day classes. Our workshops are geared toward teen and adult makers of all experience levels, age 13 and up. Art on the Meadow workshops offer participants an opportunity to connect traditional art and craft processes with contemporary ideas and approaches to artmaking. We strive for our workshops to be imaginatively challenging and logistically accessible for our West Michigan neighbors. Come jump into Ox-Bow’s creative community (and maybe even into our beautiful lagoon)!
