Come make a ZINE and join a legacy of storytelling and knowledge-sharing that challenges the mainstream! Emerging from the Harlem Renaissance and commonly associated today with punk/DIY subcultures, zines are mini-magazines using collage, illustration, and writing.

MSA is joined by cultural worker Yasmin Zacaria Mikhaiel of BIYA BIYA for an interactive, beginner-friendly workshop on how to construct zines rooted in family memory, food, and rituals. Together we’ll uplift the legacies that usually go lost or forgotten.
