This workshop teaches photographers how to translate their images into tangible, tactile zines. We will blend photography with prose, exploring high contrast layout techniques and the art of manual binding. Learn how to sequence your images for maximum impact and integrate text to create a cohesive narrative using traditional "foldie" techniques. Every participant will leave with a finished, hand-folded photo zine.
All supplies are included but participants should come with their own photographs.
